Escaped Gecko

[Silas0526]

Last night, I opened a place on the lid for wires to put a thermometer probe in. I forgot to close it, and he got out sometime last night. I tore my room apart searching for him, and I can still not find him. I also quickly searched the nearby rooms, and put a towel under the door to make sure he did not get in/out. He is a very small gecko, so he could be about anywhere.

I found him in an area between my desk and drawer. He was sleeping, and is in my vivarium again! He was about 2 inches from the edge of the vivarium.

I've had many escapes and recoveries. I have an electric blue day gecko who's about 2-3" long. It hasn't happened in a while, but he would sometimes get out when I was misting the cage. Eventually he figured out how to get back in, so I'd leave the cage open until I saw him back in there.
