Loki is the first at the waterhole. Her mother Arsinoë watches her and waits. Then Berenike comes sneaking in from behind and takes the coveted place.😜 Keeping in groups is a very special topic in leopard geckos. I wouldn't advise beginners!

In German literature, group housing is often recommended. But that's based on misunderstandings.

Leopard geckos are most often loners in nature. But there are also huge aggregations, in particularly suitable places.

In some cases, they already show signs of social behaviour, such as gaze following. But they also can be very brutal! You have to offer them plenty of space and hiding places and analyse their behaviour. It's very interesting!

In this video you can see that the geckos have a clear relationship to each other. If this were not the case, they would now vibrate with their tails. And then possibly make a small exchange of blows, or get along immediately. Every now and then this has to be clarified.💕

This Loki💓 entertainment is all you need! 😜

Gagagag! 😝😝😝 ⠀ ⠀ ⠀

A recent photo of Banana Joe, my oldest leopard gecko. He's about 20 years old (probably older).

Some may ask why, I ask why not! This is a fish with a palm in its mouth (drawn 2007).🌴🐟 Any questions?😝😝😝

As a kid, I always loved to watch the "Bionic Six" on TV. "Bionic, Bionic Six uh-oh-uh-ooh!" 😆😆😆
In 2007, I just invented the "new BIONIC 2.0"! 🤔😅🙃

This is a titmel. It's been first described in 2007. Other than camels, it lives in the mangroves only. When the flood comes, it sticks its long trunk inside a tight and wet hole. The thickening at the tip of the trunk serves as an anchor. At the back it has two huge humps which always float on the surface. They feel very nice. Because the titmel can't breathe underwater, there's a nose on each hump. It can't flee in water, so it follows a very interesting defense strategy. If an enemy appears (mostly sea cucumbers), it sprays milk out of its noses. That's very confusing for the enemy, because milk signals offspring. Every predator knows not to fight a feeding mother. When living at land, this weird animal behaves almost like a common rabbit. Always hopping around, looking for huge carrots and fresh holes. Scientists still try to figure out the reproductive system of that species. There's no evidence for sexual reproduction yet. It seems as if they just appear out of random holes in the swamp. Scientists definitely need to dig much deeper, harder and faster!
