My Roomates

I have a few geckos living in my house with me. Geckos are territorial, so each one of them has their own spot in the house where they spend most of their time.

This is Vacuum Gecko. (He likes to hide behind my vacuum.) He is the largest of my geckos and the one that I see the most often. I am quite fond of him. He lives his whole life on one wall of my house. Late at night he walks back and forth looking for food. When he gets upset he makes chirping noises.


This little guy is Balcony Gecko. He was playing dead when I took this picture. He played his role so well that he even let me touch him.

How cool! The kids are hitting me up for newts. No way, the cats will definitely eat them.

I wish my household animals had names and personalities. No, wait, no I don't. But I do wish they were Geckos, or as the kids say, Geicos. They want to know if these were toys like theirs! (I told them no.)

Heh, Geicos, that's cute.

I remember we used to let them loose in a crack in our bathroom. I had a REALLY big one in my room when I was 8 one time. I think they're cool though.
