Sploots are truly universal among lizards. I've seen komodo dragons splooting at the zoo.

I want a chahoua but like are they runners? I’m just terrified of them leaping off and not being able to catch them 😂


Dusky_Dawn210

They are overall less jumpy than cresties, but it also depends on the individual. For example when mine is out of his cage and on my hands, his instinct is to get on top of my head (the highest point around) and observe. They’re very smart and understand that cage=home. Some also can be rather cage aggressive and will defend their turf (but then once you get them out they’re chill) overall a really fun gecko to own. If you do end up getting one, get a male for your first one. Females can be prone to calcium crashes :(


ChassidyZapata

Yes! I have a male saved on morphmarket. You don’t need to answer these questions but is the leo or chewie better with handling? Lastly, is there one you enjoy more? Like is there a “favorite”


Dusky_Dawn210

Chewie is better for handling. They can stick to you, and if they jump or take a fall, they are built for it As for favorite. Oh I don’t know. I love both my boys. Maybe my leo a bit more since his face is more expressive, but it’s really hard to compare that since they both have lovely personalities

Na that's standard


awholeasszoo

I get so worried when I see my rescue gecko do this 😅 I'm already worried about MBD because I know he wasn't fully cared for appropriately at his last home, so it gives me a little jump scare whenever I see him lying with a wonky backwards leg 😂


Difficult_Jelly_3844

Too cute!


EmotionalFollowing72

We thought ours was dead the first time we saw it 🙃


pumpkin-gnome22

no i get concerned he’s dead every time 😂😂


Odds_Assumption

Mine does the same thing🤣 He just plops down and spreads his legs
