I have a Skunk Gecko AKA Lined Gecko and its a very skittish creature until they get to know you. But they will let you handle them and it has never bit me or anything. He is by far the easiest to maintain. Just throw in some crickets every other day and he eats them by the following morning. I handle him every other day or so and he enjoys the attention. If you have any other questions let me know.
