WEEK 44!!!! Got my .44 mag out!!! 8 more, let's go! This week=Chondrodactylus angulifer!
This gecko is another gecko from the Western Africa and it overlaps it's territory with previous countdown species such as the Ptenopus, Colopus, and the Pachydactylus rugosus. This beautiful gecko pictures can vary considerably in color and shading depending on locality, and there is known to be a larger subspecies (Chondrodactylus angulifer namibiensis). The pictured animals are from the locale of Little Karoo, and tend to have darker coloring/blotching than the more typical reddish varieties. They are all very very cool. They are a very bulky framed gecko that can definitely hold it's own and doesn't seem to have any problem beasting crickets or other small invertebrates shamelessly. This gluttonous savage is not shy when it comes to eating which is a characteristic I relish in an animal. Enjoy!

Hi Oliver,
nice to meet you here at blogspot.
I am Dirk from Germany, one of the guys of your friend list at Facebook. ;)
Very nice repti, the little!
We're planning to acquire two or three crested geckos this year.
We'll read from each other, either here or at Facebook. :)
Glamorous Regards from Germany

Haha, yes crested geckos are nice animals I'm sure that you will have fun with them! I like cresteds since they can become quite tame and tolerant of humans :D
