hi my local rep shop has had hemidactalus turcicus breeding in his cricket room for 10 years or more from a load that escaped in the mid 90s,anyway he recently caught a few and as a result i have 4 geckos that i know very little about,
after a unsuccessful search for a care sheet ive turned to u guys coz lets face it theres no better advise than that of experienced keepers,
ive got them on coco mulch with a heatmat and mist once a day
can anyone give me any usefull tips,
id be very interested to know how to sex them?
and if i can keep big groups together as im sure hes gonna give me some more when he catches them

any imput will be gratefully recieved

i don't have experience with these species, but regarding the sexing, if you can get photos of their underneath, it may help.
