This is Fire (foreground) and Lightning (behind) - a pair of Sudanese ground geckos which I bought from a pet store in 2006. Sadly, in 2011 both of them passed away.

As you can see, Lightning happens to only have half of her back left foot - one of the reasons I chose her; she was somewhat different to the others.

*Sorry for bad-ish quality, had to take a photo of a photo for this.

Sorry to bother you, but do you have the scientific name for them? I am trying to search for them.

I'm afraid I wouldn't know at all :(

I wish I could help, but all I know is that they were Sudanese Ground geckos.. even though I can't find any photos exactly like them on Google images with that name; the pet store which I got them from was one of the most reputable/favourite ones in my city.

I can attempt to find out for you, but I'm not sure whether or not I'll find much.

*check your page to see what region you are from* AH! I see the problem. They may not be available in the USA, but if you can find the scientific name that would help me to check to make sure.

I'm afraid the closest I've managed to find would be a Baluch ground gecko;

And the scientific name for that specific species is "Bunopus tuberculatus" as far as I can tell.

Sure thing mate :)

I wish you the best of luck. And please inbox me once you have your reptile; whatever it may be :D

Although, on a personal note; just as a suggestion, I would definitely take a look at buying a Tokay gecko or a Day Gecko as an alternative if you decide not to go with one of these/or if they're unavailable. Stunning geckos. :D
