Hi Elizabeth -
Thanks again for the book/journal suggestions.
No babies yet - only two of the geckos are adults, but they'll all be ready to breed next season! I have certainly "been bitten" - I find each species' behavior so fascinating that it makes me wish I had gotten into this sooner... and they are just so cute.

Hi Dana---
You are quite welcome. I can't advise you on the better general reptile magazines out there. I do recommend the 1995 English translation of Henkel & Schmidt's 1991 Geckoes: Biology, Husbandry, & Reproduction or their newer version published in 2003. That is a must for any geckophile's library!!
If the Bean Farm doesn't have the International Gecko Society journals, I know of a Washington state source who definitely might. (Just completed my Dactylus volumes with Dactylus 1, #1 from that very source.)
The books you've told us about seem right in line with your interests.
Very interesting to hear about your 13 geckos (days, rhacs, & leopards) in just 6 months! Any eggs yet? Sounds like you've "been bitten", that you are rather serious about geckos. I totally agree that it's about time you became a GGA member (heh,heh!). Really, what better way to invest only $32 per gecko year for such a wonderful education and networking opportunities.

Off the subject, but would you or anyone else on the list have any recommendations for a relative newbie like myself for gecko/reptile magazines and/or journals?
I think Elizabeth has that covered. You might check out http://www.beanfarm.com for old IGS (International Gecko Society) journals, sometimes they have some.
