RE: Hemidactylus mabouia (a small visitor) [ESP-ENG]

Ohh they are fabulous! And they are quite big! How long have they been living in your home? There are only 2 of them or is just 1?. Do they make sounds?

My friend @bulkathos told me that he is a biologist, that they make that kek kek noise because it is a call to their partner.

Have you given them names?

Thank you for sharing these wonderful photos!

Actually, the photos correspond to only one, this is not the largest one.
I think I have a couple of specimens living at home for more than 5 years, and it seems that they have had a family because I have seen smaller ones.

And as your friend says, I have seen that they make the noise to attract females.

I have also seen them on the stairs outside...they go in and out of the apartments...they even take advantage of the electrical outlets to do so.

Anyway, I'm going to gather material to document them... hahaha... I don't know how I didn't think of that...

Thanks for the exchange

Impressive, they show that they are very intelligent when there is no light, but my friend told me that they have nocturnal habits.

It's great that you are taking photographs, and you can publish them here in this community, the truth is these are very unique creatures.

The administrator told me that there is an urban myth that says that "that these animals make women fall in love?" curious, right?

Delighted with your contribution, thank you very much!
