Yes, it was the eye that was a revelation to us too, pamsai! We hadn't realized gecko eyes could be so stunning...
And, to be honest, we have no clue if this critter is male or female.

that's one amazing eye! Beautiful work of art. He grew up into a fine fellah, if indeed he is a male. Was so cut when young. Congrats of SOTD.
