Hi all,

My name is Ann and I am a new member of this site and new to keeping reptiles.

We got our first lizard about a month ago - it's a little beardie we call Alan! Alan is a good eater and has been shedding.

We also just acquired a gecko which we were told is a day gecko however the pet shop could not identify it and I cannot find a similar gecko on the net. It doesn't look like a Madagascar or a standings day gecko.
I am a little worried as I am unsure if we are giving it the right care.

I have attached a pic and would really appreciate some advice?

Thanks everyone.

Hey...

Welcome to the forum. Alan's a good name... Smile

Cant see the pic of you're "day gecko", maybe need to try again. I'm sure someone on here will be able to identify it for you and give you advise on the care it needs.

Smile

Thank you for all the replies! Very Happy

We had a guy who runs a pet shop selling lizard etc and he looked at Brian and has never seen one like him before - I am baffled lol
Thanks for looking.

Ann
