Sleep feets.

This is an excellent example of sleepy feet. :D

Which is actually even more important than it looks. Since eye-lidded lizards show stress by closing their eyes and lying very still, a lot of people mistake stressed gecko for cute sleepy gecko. 

For contrast, here’s a picture of Echo being stressed! Her body language is tight; her feet aren’t flopped back in ‘sleepy feet’. You can’t tell from the angle, but her earhole is also constricted.

(I didn’t stress her on purpose; she needed to be examined and she gets very stressed when out in the daylight. Also, she isn’t missing toes.)

I have a much greater appreciation for Marmalade’s sleepy feets :0!

Thankfully I’ve never noticed her in that stressed position, she always just flops around like a pancake. And for some reason her favorite thing to lay on is the temperature probe. She LOVES that thing. She plops on it and spreads out on it. If I move it into a different position (thinking it was in her way) she’ll just lay back on top of it. 

probe+marmalade=bffs?

Probes make the best mattresses and pillows. It’s a fact. Echo agrees 100%.

1) reblogging for the good info!
2) reblogging because I love that the leg is over the tail, like wtf??
