I attended the first annual Seattle Metro Reptile Expo this weekend in Tacoma, and it was a great success! It was packed.
I was beginning to think that I would actually make it out of there without buying anything (after drooling at everything for 2 hours), but then I found... VIPER GECKOS! A species I've been wanting forever, and I never thought I'd be able to buy them in person. I got two tiny babies, barely over an inch long. If they turn out to be a m/f pair, I shall name them Talus and Scree =)
Kudos if you know what their names mean! lol

They look great. I don't know too much about them, but full size is about 1.5". You might be able to sex them at that size.

I've read that they max out around 3 inches, but who knows... not very many people have them.

I've thought about breeding them, as I've heard theyre very prolific, but I think these two might be siblings (the guy made it sound like he only had one breeding female)... so I doubt that would be a good idea.

its also pretty funny that they're not scared of me at all... they're very chill =)

I have seen them at a reptile show a long while back and they were probably almost 3 inches long....

Nice find! I love it when at the last minute before leaving a reptile show something jumps out to take the money from my wallet...(other than a person)

Nice baby vipers you are lucky
I think your geckos could be 2-3 months old at least but this depends on how often the breeder fed them. They will grow bigger than 1,5. My vipers just 7 months old and they are around 2,5 now and I think they will be 3-3,5 easily till next winter.

good luck with them

thanks hofud, do you breed viper geckos?

[hofud]

No. They are too young as I wrote.

Great find and good luck!

this is my full grown male just to give you the idea of size they get. The females I have are a bit longer and bulkier.



to contrast this is the size they are when they hatch.
