So i've finally got my VERY First U.sikorae!!!:yahoo:

Got him at a reptile expo from a very nice guy named Mike Yesterday and he's CB!!!! Now only to find him a nice female to pair him up with * Anyone know where to get one, let me know please *

Anyways here are some pictures of him & his new home! after tweeking with the tank THREE Times, i think i may have it perfect until i can move him into my bigger exo-terra tank.

I've been researching & reading up on these guys for the past year 1/2, Can't go wrong with tons of research!

Anyways here he is " Squish " is his name!

Awesome gecko! Good job doing your research first.

thank you!! I still have to add a few more pieces of cork bark & put some vertical brances in there... but he seems to be doing good, since he tried to bite me & i seen a poop in there this morning! :yahoo:

Now to find him a lady friend!
 
You've got a lot of decor. I would guess that he feels very secure. Don't make it too hard for him to find food by overcrowding it. It's just my opinion and maybe it matters more with phants, but they need room to hunt.

Congrats on a good looking sikorae! With some vertical branches, and maybee a few thinner twigs it will be great. And i dont think it will be nesessary to remove any of the plants, they are great at hunting.

I wasn't suggesting removing any, just not adding too many more :) I think it looks great as is!

Thank you, i think i may just add some more vines in there, he seems to like hanging off those ALOT!

Congratulations on your first sikorae!

The enclosure looks great.

Thanks Western Gecko! So far so good! Got thru this first shed with me & he didn't wonderful, so i must be doing something right! :banana:
