I've always loved the big block headed look of Chondrodactylus angulifer, and was very pleased to pick up some animals from Jon Boone last year. Last night I had my first egg hatch. They produce large eggs which yield big, robust hatchlings. All my angulifer are very aggressive eaters and are a fun species to work with.

Its the exact same with me, their disproportionate head makes it look like they are about too fall over.
Congrats, gorgeous hatchling.

That chunky little one is so adorable, Congrats!

I still haven't seen these guys available much, if at all, here in the states. Do you see them growing in availability here within the next few years or pretty much staying very few and far between?

I've always thought of them as African frog eyes. Congrats on the hatchling!

Andi,

They're here and available - you just need to know who to ask. They aren't quite as fecundate as leopard geckos or any of the other common species and their care is a bit more involved as well, so the market will never be flooded with them.

Yeah, it seems like just 5 or 6 years ago you saw them offered on a fairly regular basis and then all of the sudden they kind of disappeared and you rarely saw any offered up publicly. Jon once posted up some pics of some highly colored ones and I told myself if I ever got the chance to pick up some like that I would not pass up the opportunity. I'm really glad I didn't.

I think a lot of that stemmed from a lack of blood diversity and a general fall out of interest from the gecko community. For a long while, and it's starting to level off/fade away, the gecko hobby became too focused on Rhacodactylus geckos. I'm happy to see a shift back towards diverse collections from all over the world.

Is anyone aware of them being in Canada? The picture just makes me need them haha.
