Rather odd Sight

So I looked in the geckos cage today and saw the boys butt was hunched way up in the air and he was cleaning himself like a dog would. has anyone else seen this?

Happens all the time with my male. I pick him up and he does that out of excitement half the time. He even gets excited when I put him back in his cage or when I mist his cage. It's quite common for my guy to do this once or twice a day..... males :rolleyes:


They will do this behavior whenever they evert their penes, whether from excitement or after breeding.

Ok good its not just a crazy gecko. haha I jsut thought it was funny cuz I yell at my dog all the time for doing that so I had to laugh.

Lol yeah he isn't crazy. My friends thought my geckos were cute until they saw the male doing his thing... ;)

but they are cute, even after they do that.

the only times my male does this is after breeding with the female

lance

also they do this when they are shedding
