I googled until I found out what I had caught climbing down my chimney here in Walterboro SC. That search led me here and to the "House Gecko". I see that it is not native, so does that mean I should not release it? My daughter has it in her bug collection toy now, and I have no heart to kill it OR keep it?

Charleston - we thought it must have come from one of our overseas shippment, but maybe it was somewhat of a "local" gecko - its a baby one, really tiny. I've brought it home and set it up in a tank with a heat lamp and some anole food ... do you think it will survive? And how big will it get?elisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01689400302410089548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35799171.post-88919016363303404402009-09-17T08:44:01.192-04:002009-09-17T08:44:01.192-04:00Sadly, no.
