I generally don't handle geckos. Especially species that "freak-out" so much. Keep in mind that this species is a skin-sloughing species and if you handle it there is a good chance that it will tear its own skin off to escape. You said it's 9 inches eh? Is that with a full tail? greg ----- Gregory J. Watkins-Colwell Division of Vertebrate Zoology Yale Peabody Museum of Natural History 170 Whitney Avenue, P. O.
