Thanks. Yeah I believe its sand stone and this was their prefered habitat from what I found. Lots of little cracks and such for them to hide in. Near this spot were granite boulders but there were none of these geckos on them.

Fabulous. Love the translucent tongue. Is this some sandstone or similar?
