hello everyone I am new here! i was doing research on l. picturatus on this site as well as others and there just is not much information on these guys. why is that? are they more delicate than williamsi? they are a beautiful gecko and i would love to know their secret.

thanks! Angela

it is funny that you ask, I just recently acquired 2 males, thought to be a pair, and am unable to find anyone who has a female of them. they are very cute little geckos, it's a shame they're not common in the hobby!

They are an abundance of geckos that I think are cool, but aren't popular. Most people entering the hobby (and many breeders) stick with what's "mainstream". Lygodactylus were just catapulted into popularity because of these "blue beauties", but honestly few care to look up the other 60+ species. I currently keep 5 species of Lygodactylus and williamsi was the last one to acquire. People tend to sleep, but I say that can keep sleeping...

L. kimhowelli (also from Tanzania as L. williamsi)


And a L. picturatus juvenile from last season

That is a cool gecko, I recently got a breeding pair of williams and now I want every type of day gecko I can find it's like a drug addiction or something, so I'm already looking to get more.

Hi there,
I've just joined this family and hope my stay with you will be wonderful. I am a wildlife manager currently developing a training tool for identification of geckos of the genus Lygodactylus. Most needed are photos of males and females of the following species: Lygodactylus angularis, L. capensis, L. conradti, L. gutturalis, L. keniensis, L. kimhowelli, luteopicturatus, L. manni, and L. picturatus. I've enough of the L. williamsi because they are endemic to a forest in my country, Tanzania. But also I've learned that there is mixing up of species such that a species like L. kimhowelli is named L. capensis in some texts and websites.

I look forward to hearing from you the soonest.

Many regards, jchenga.
