Hi all, I'm having fun watching two gold-dust day gex in my sunroom, through binoculars. I'm not sure if they're fighting or attempting to mate and one is not willing. There's a lot of tail writhing, some chasing, a little biting. They do an interesting stance where one will turn vertical, and raise up on one side so its back is to the other. Also arching the back, tail lifting, tail "sniffing". And the funniest one, sticking the tongue way out. It's quite fascinating! I get the feeling of insults with most of this. But it's a 12 x 24 room, with lots of plants and hiding places, big enough for more than one little gecko I'd think! They will separate 4-6', but then pursue each other again,
I'd appreciate comments from those who have seen day geckos in the wild. I've never put two males together of course, so I've never seen this stuff. These are escapees from the nursery closet, but they're about a year old.
