Hey everyone,

I just got back from a 4 day jaunt in Boston, MA, and the moment I came home I rushed upstairs to check on the new gecko. She's doing extremely well, her foot has righted itself and she is now walking on it normally. Whatever it was it's gone now. Probably just cramping from being in the egg.

Anyway, she even appears to have gotten a little bit bigger in just the 4 days I was gone. (My parents made the hour trip up once to check on her while I was away, and my mother just adores her.)

As for what they eat - I have mini sized canned crickets that I cut up even smaller and doused with calcium powder for her. Incubation temperature does indeed determine gender, and I incubated her to be female. I won't know for sure until she's bigger. (I think about 3 weeks)...

Thanks all, for your congratulations. I got a suggestion for a name for her, which I like a lot. It's Amarie, and it means "Gracious under adversity" I think that's the name that will stick with her. I really like the sound of it.
