    Re: Something followed me home this weekend

    Too cool for school Deborah!

    Do you know what type/from what Island? Male or female?

    Leachies are awesome. Katie/SunshineWalker got Esmeralda (Bayonnaise Leachie) for her, but we really share her. She rocks!

    Beware, they can definitely be cage defensive, especially the males. Ezzy is hit or miss, but usually okay with being picked up. We have welder's gloves to test the waters . She's a total sweetie when out though. It's like hook training a snake that's cage defensive or has a strong food response. Their in cage attitude is not necessarily indicative of their out of cage attitude/mood.

    Enjoy! He/she looks amazing!

    I am lucky enough that I have been around various rhacks (I have a few breeder friend that breeds those, chahouas, garg and crested) and I even bred crested for a while so I know all too well about Leachie, not much of a difference with Chaouhas except for the cage aggression which chahouas is lacking completely. Leachies are usually fine outside the cage especially if you handle them on a regular basis.

    Even though I don’t breed crested anymore I have not been without a geckos in the last 11 years.

    This guy is small but looks male after sexing with a magnifying glass and I am good with that, my geckos are pets and pet only so it does not matter.

    His parents are PI Nuu Ana (Sire) X PI Nuu Ami (Dam)

    Friend and peer pressure are not helping keeping the zoo small, that’s all I can say.

    No criticism from me either, I totally understand & approve your decision to "be followed home".
    That reminds me....I need to get out more....

    Very cool new addition! I’m prone to having new pets “follow me home” as well.
