White's Tree Frog's?

[poison]

Geckos shouldn't be handled more than tree frogs should.

If you want a pet to hold a lot, neither reptiles or amphibians are a good option. I usually compare them to aquarium fishes, look but don't touch

That's not necessarily true. Considering our oils are toxic to amphibians they should only be handled to be observed and checked to see if there okay. But with a lot of reptiles they can be handled much longer then a frog and will tolerate it much more then a frog. Though they are no dog or cat where you can constantly interact with them.

As for the op it sounds to me like a aft would best suit you there care is very similar to leos as of temps and food they just need a lot more humidity. i suggest using childrens washed play sand and a mixture of soil for substrate this way they can burrow and make there own hides.
