Electric Blue Geckos!
Just got them a few days ago. Feeding nicely and just lounging around on the slab of cork bark that makes them feel like they're on a tree.
The male is named Peg Leg. He somehow lost his leg and was sold to me that way at the pet store.
The female is named Babe.
Not really original by way of names, but they fit the bill.
Cute tiny little lizards. Fits nicely into a small tank.

They're just under 2" in length.
Yeah, they're beautifully colored. They were the only lizards I really liked in the shop because of the bright colors.
The male just shed it's skin today too.

These guys are very peculiar in their habits. They really like to perch on things that resemble trees.
They don't usually like to go on the glass or the ground.

You need to get a better picture of Bebe, her markings look neat! They're both real cuties, I love the little ones! Good luck with them.

It was difficult to get a good shot with the lens I've got.
They were perched on top of a piece of cork bark in the back of the tank. The tank is about 8" to 10" (haven't really measured it precisely) wide.
I love them both.
Babe ironically has more color to her. She's not only blue-green with an orange underside and black markings, but she's got a coppery brown all throughout her back.
I'll see if I can get a better shot later in the week.
