Please note, it's not my video equipment or web site, it's a posting
I forwarded from the usenet newsgroup rec.pets.herp because I thought
people on this list would be interested and/or amused.

If you like geckos that dig, try Stenodactylus sthenodactylus. They will
rapidly turn a deep layer of suitable sand into the gecko equivalent of
an ant farm, complete with corridors, ramps, turn-arounds, back doors,
snoozing chambers, etc. If one of these little guys were to write its
autobiography it would be called "A Life Devoted to Tunnel Maintenance".
Despite the tiny feet, they can really move the sand. Their Latin (actually
Greek) name means "narrow toes, strong toes".
(And when they aren't digging they are basking, looking like a row of
little sausages with their arms bent back along their bodies, palms up.
They walk with an absurdly cute pigeon-toed waddle, and they chirp like
sparrows.)
