I can't dissagree with the coolness of knob tails they tend to be a bit pricey. I would go for a Leopard Gecko, African Fat Tail or a Pictus Gecko.

I strongly recommend leos. They're hardy and easy to take care of and unless you want a very fancy leo they're really cheap. I also agree knobtails are cool but as the colonel says they're pricey and I don't think it's worth it. I've never owned a knobtail though, I just think they look cool.

I would have to go with either Tokays, leo or bananas, very pretty geckos. Tokay's are handleable, just beware the bite, But it don't hurt too bad!!

WOO! Fat-tails!

I worked with african fat-tailed geckos for a few years and they were AMAZING to work with. Great experience, I'd recommend them to anyone.

I have three leopard geckos now and i have to say they are all great. They get along well when i put them together and are not territorial at all so if you wanna get more than one you dont have to worry...just dont get 2 males...other than that they are very handelable and good looking lizards that come in a huge assortment of colors. I dont know much about fat tails but my friend has 2 and he loves them. They are cool with those big beety black eyes good luck

leos are very hardy and have a lot of personality, so i think they are the best. unless u want something different.

Yellow Ackies!!! no, they're a Varanid. They are too pricey for me right now though. But I would have to say NEW CALADONIAN GIANT GECKOS all the way woo hoo.
