    Wild Morph at Home
    We have tons and I mean tons of Mediterranean geckos around my neighborhood, and my house is especially covered in them most nights. I really like the little guys fun to watch and help keep some of the insects at bay.

    Well when walking up to the door tonight my girlfriend spotted this little guy near the porch light.

    At first we thought albino but notice the normal eyes and with a quick snatch I had him so I could get a closer look at the little guy. Seems to be a neat morph almost no patterning to him just a faint one on the tail and nearly no dark coloration.

    Here are some pictures of him next to another one that is more typical of the ones around my house and neighborhood, as well as what I have encountered else where in Texas.

    Always good to see nature can surprise you with her own breeding projects.

    My house is covered with them at night and during the day it is covered with anoles and the random snake. One of the things I love about the house is that it is very rare that I don't see a reptile on any given day.

    For me it is turtles, the lake behind my apartment must have a couple hundred turtles in it. Some really big ones too!

    I breifly thought about trying to breed it out, but I think I am just going to let nature do its thing on this one.

    I am in Garlad to be exact, which is on the East NorthEast side of Dallas( city borders meet up about 3 miles from me) but Dallas and Ft Worth combine to make of of the larger metroplexes in the united states, it would take me about 45 min to an hour to make it to FtWorth, less if I didn't drive like an old man.

    If its a male why not put him with a female let them mate, keep the eggs an let nature have them back. Then once your eggs hatch you can breed them together and occasionally catch one to throw in the breeding mix to keep.
