Hi everyone. I have noticed after a few days that one of my thick-tailed geckos (U.milii) seems to ignore crickets quite frequently. Everytime I offer one it just shakes it whole body when the cricket touches its lips (I use forceps to feed my thick tails).
What is this weird shaking behaviour...
Hey everyone,
I've been planning to get a few Oedura sp for along time but i just don't like how velvets spread their feces everywhere. Its like a drunk puking all over your car. Does anyone know how to deal with the enormous amount of feces.
Also i want to get a few more geckos. Can you give...
Hi everyone. Over the past few days i have noticed something unusual in my thick-tailed gecko enclosure. I have two thick-tailed geckos just to let you know.
A few days ago i found a small patch or a little ditch at the back of the enclosure. I placed sand on top of it, to cover it up. The...
I was wondering if it was possible to house a Eastern stone gecko (Diplodactylus vittatus) and a box-patterned gecko (Diplodactylus steindachneri) with my two thick-tailed geckos if i provide lots of hides. Will it cause aggression, is it risky, is it even possible?
Today when i arrived home i discovered something wrong with one of my thick-tailed geckos (Underwoodisaurus milii) poop. The red light bulb was on.
I could see two droppings one was in the hiding place (it was black, appeared hard and hade a white head which i think is latter or something) the...
Hi i'm thinking of getting either strophurus taenicauda or ciliaris in a few years and was wondering if they could climb glass. I already have a glass sliding door enclosure ready for them to use.
I wanted a northern velvet gecko (Oedura castelnaui), the breeder told me that the velvet gecko...
Hi, in a few weeks i'm going on a trip for 5 days and i don't know what am I going to do with my thick-tailed geckos. My family members aren't helpful, they do not want to feed it or clean up its droppings while i'm away.
How will my geckos survive for 5 days?
I won't be able to mist them, so...
Hi, i have two thick-tailed geckos (Underwoodisaurus millii) and i'm interested in getting either Stophurus taenicauda or Stophurus ciliaris.
The breeder who i got my thick tails from also sells Stophurus taenicauda and Stophurus ciliaris for, but not at the moment. They cost $100 - $150 each...
Hi, I have two thick-tailed geckos, both hatchlings. They settled in fine but i'm worried. One of the thick-tails loves to explore around the enclosure and climbling up the background. The other thick-tail just sits in its in the hiding place and hardly ever comes out. I've only seen it come out...
Hi everyone. I want some info about UV lights. On youtube i asked caterpillargriffae A.K.A Rainey about using UV lights for my Oedura castelnaui. She simply replied 'Do not use UV lights for nocturnal geckos, it distrupts their cycle'. Rainey isn't in Australia but she owns a wide range of...
Hi my licence was processed a few days ago and i'm getting confused about looking after geckos. I've read many books about reptiles including Care of Australian reptiles in Captivity by John Weigel, but some of the info in that particulary book confuses me.
I can't decide whether to get a...
What substrates would be suitable for Oedura tryoni. I'm thinking of using sand but their might be a risk of impaction. Could someone give some substrate suggestions?
Hi I was wondering if anyone knew if all Velvet geckos (Oedura species) have all the same requirements. I want to know how to care for the robust velvet gecko (Oedura robusta) and the Southern spotted velvet gecko (Oedura tryoni). I need info like setup, temperature, humidity, decorations...
