I have to second that! I find it rather disturbing that a pet store
would be selling such a gecko if they just want to get rid of it for
cheap (It's very sad...). The geckos who don't like to be handled
command respect, I think.

I hate to see any gecko sold as "cheap" - this devalues them as living
creatures, contributes to the "disposable pet" mentality. :( I admire
geckos that don't like to be handled. Disrespect for humans is a plus!

White-spotted geckos' "real" name, their scientific name, is
Tarentola annularis. They are not the gecko to get if you like to
handle your geckos.
My favorite gecko for handling is the Northern Velvet Gecko...Oedura
castelnaui. They are about 7" long from snout to tail tip. They are
native to Australia and love to climb glass! Captive-bred northern
velvet geckos are available in the USA. Check out www.gekkota.com
for photos.

haha! see this is what i was wondering about.
i know there is that japanese gecko that is also agressive.
do "white spotted" gecko's have a real name that i can resolve on
the inet
to find info.
they are glass climbers so i wonder if this means agressive if
handled
and/or agressive around others of his species?
thanks for letting me know they are agressive. THIS EXPLAINS WHY THE
PET
STORE SELLS IT CHEAP. go figure!
