Hi ash_m ~

Hopefully you will note some action and get some replies to your questions in the Other Geckos subforum on GU.

BTW, a hearty welcome to Geckos Unlimited

Just quickly found a caresheet

Amphibian Care >> Dwarf Sand Gecko (Stenodactylus species) Care

Stenodactylus are from the Arabian peninsula and upper African continental regions immediately surrounding it. I breed them. That care sheet referenced is not all that accurate in their care. I have been meaning to put together a care sheet for some time, but been busy with work. Hopefully, the holidays will allow some time to get around to it!
