Chris ~ I'd probably recognize you, but right now I'm having a bit o' difficulty connecting a face with your name. Could that be age on my part??? Can I have another chance at the next show?
Yes, those were the geckos I had at the October 2006 show: Lepidodactylus lugubris and Oedura castelnaui juvies. Just posted two show ads on the GGA website: one for the UAE near Portland the 24-25 Feb and the second for a one day NWCBE in Renton on 31 March at the Renton Holiday Inn. So there was an unfortunate interruption in your geckos' care! I'm glad your office manager was willing to come to the rescue. I was quite fortunate living on Capitol Hill. My lights only flickered a bit at the height of the winds. All my critters and I were able to carry on as usual. I, too, would love to see a local Gecko Fest. I did attend the Frog Fest a couple years ago. I'm afraid more folks are into snakes, then frogs, and only then geckos. It's really unfortunate that more people have not discovered the joys of pet geckos. One goal I have is to popularize Oedura castelnaui as excellent, easy care pets. Many people only know leopard geckos. How distressing!
