Default Cyrtodactylus peguensis video - male chirping

Hello everybody,

I would like to share with you a video of my Cyrtodactylus peguensis male while he is chirping. In the second part I played him his own voice record, thatīs why he is so curious.
Hope you will enjoy it

Awesome! Reminds me of a technique used to breed frogs by making them listen to recordings of males' calls

Jaona ~

Do you know what subspecies you have chirping in your video? From a basic google search, there appears to be two: Cyrtodactylus peguensis peguensis and Cyrtodactylus peguensis zebraicus.

Do you know whether that information is current?

Iīm glad you like it . The best is, when I play this video at home and forget to shut down the voice, cyrtodactylus is wake up even during the day and starts chirping .
I have two males now, but surprisingly they donīt chirp to each other.

Elizabeth, as far as I know, this information is right. But I donīt know which subspecies I have. They are from Siris line.

Last week I paired this male with young female and catch them by courting and first mating, but during the recording battery discharged, so I have only half of it .

Great videos! I wish there were more for different species of interesting behaviors. I swear, 99% are just feeding vids. My cyrtodactylus elok male makes very similar chirps but I think they're a little bit higher pitched and not as loud. I think eloks are smaller, but not positive on that.

Jaona, I know Siri and if you contact her again I am quite sure she will be able to tell you about the ssp. She's such a great breeder!
