Title: Message

Hi. We are having a discussion in the Norwegian mailinglist about tockays and their diet/behaviour so I thought I’d seek some info and advice here aswell.. I was talking to a guy who has been to Thailand and reports that there were tockays, and housegeckoes ( H. frenatus and possibly Cosymbotus platyurus) in the house where he lived. Are the housegeckoes pray for the tockays? To what extent do tockays prey on smaller lizards in the wild? Has anyone observed tockays eating fruit in the wild or is this very uncommon? It it possible to get hold of a fecal analysis which determines what the primary sources of food of WC tockays were?   Do tockays prefer to live in pairs or colonies? Or is this a question of food availability? When tockays live in colonies, do all the females deposit eggs in same spot or does each female have it’s own spot for egglaying? Regards obeligz
