Gremlin seems to fit 'cause I'm sitting here at my computer (which is in my herp room) with the only light being from the moniter and the red night light on the gecko's cage. I'm just watching him as he is hanging out in his ficus plant, when all of a sudden he starts coming at me and opening his mouth real wide. He did this 3 or 4 times. I have only had him for 1 1/2 weeks and this is the first time I have seen him exhibit this behavior. He usually just looks all sweet and innocent. So Gremlin it is.

lol. :)
I bet it hates the light coming from the monitor... they usually don't do that unless they're having a meltdown.

I am not really familiar with Crested Gecko's. I have heard people talk about them a lot, but never really invested the time to really get to know that species. Although your's does look really neat. How big do they get? Are they handleable?

Dan,
According to what I have read these geckos can reach a total length of 10 inches. Mine right now is about 3.5" and I only handle him briefly when I clean out the enclosure for 2 reasons...1. He can really jump far and I am afraid he will get hurt. 2. If crested's get too stressed out they can drop their tails and they don't grow back. As he grows and becomes more use to me I hope to be able to handle him a little more often.
