What type of markings, patterns does your baby gecko have when it is not the
boneish color? How big is it?
For a start you could feed "him" pinhead or perhaps 1 week old crickets and
vestigial wing Drosophila (tiny fruit flies which can be cultured at home and
don't fly). Try him out with baby food (peach, banana, tropical fruit, and
you might mix in chicken or turkey baby food for protein). Some house geckos
actually are quite fond of this mixture. Mist his cage with water about once
daily if ambient temps are about 75 F. You might keep a water dish with
pebbles (so the crickets don't drown) is his cage as well.
You could post a photo to this list which would really help in identifying
him.

I live in Australia and found a little baby gecko in my hallway. Ive
heard that people keep geckos as pets and was wondering if this is possible
for me?? My little fella is a tan/brown kind of colour today, last night
when i first found him he was more of a boneish colour.
I have no idea if it is possible for me to keep him, what to feed him,
what to keep him in, or even if he is infact a he. :p
I was hoping somebody would be able to give me some handy information
because I am really at a loss when it comes to geckos.
