Hello and welcome back to the Gekko section of the forums.
Take a peak through the Tokay Morph thread. I think you might be surprised what has been happening in the world of Tokay. You can also visit Michael's Tokay Hoard at: www.billewicz.com for other interesting genetic developments.
Gekko smithi, or Green Eyed Gecko used to be quite common as imports back in the 90's as well. Up until just the last couple of months there have been no Green Eyed imported at all for at least 3 years. Even now, the few groups that came in probably totaled no more than 40 animals.
Anyhow, if you place a "Wanted" listing in the classified section here on GU, you should here back from a couple of folks with available Gekko.
All the best,
Michael

Well hello and Welcome the Gekko forums. You'll find several Tokay keepers, breeders & enthusiasts here. You'll also find lots of good information pertaining to Tokay in the older threads.
_______________________________
If your female is wild caught and this is her first go at being gravid & producing eggs in captivity, I might suggest that you pull the male now so she can rest. WC females do not always have the capacity for none stop egg production even though they will try. :blushing::coverlaugh:
If you rest her, she will build up her calcium reserves and allow her kidney's to catch up as well.
Good luck and enjoy!

Cool, I just hate to see girl going to egg binding.
Yeah, there are a couple of Tokay breeders in the UK. Some of them are regular contributors here to this forum.

I do tend to pair the same Tokay together if they have bred well in the past since Tokay tend to bond. What they cannot do in an enclosure that can occur in the wild is that the female can move away.

Sry couldnt help myselfHi my name is Joe and a few of you know me from other sites. I currently have 14 Gekko Gecko to include 1 Powder Blue het from Spotted Scales and a Calico het from Emerald Exotics. I do a lot of rescues and the majority of my collection is normals but love them all the same. I have 4 at the moment that are well over 100 grams , more like closer to the 130 mark. Love all my Tokays and my collection just keeps growing and growing, haha. Nice to meet everyone!! Joe

Welcome to our corner of the Gekko forums.
In my first year of working with Tokay I had collected several morph collections with no normals in them. But then the rescues started showing up which tended to me a lot of normal males. So I know what you mean.
Feel free to post some pictures of your Tokay. We'd like to see them.
All the best,
Michael's Tokay Hoard @ www.billewicz.com
