    Desert Gecko Rack featuring Pachydactylus species

    This is the rack I just had built for my Pachydactylus species (along with a lone helmeted). I still have a long way to go towards making these look pretty, but this is the start. I tried to figure out what I wanted to allow space for adding the species on my dream list down the line, as well as...

    New Mossies

    I just picked up a 1.4 group from the importers today. A couple are pretty skinny, and they were rather dehydrated, so hoping they all come around. They already spent a few hours in a cool shower today, and seem to be plumping back up. 1.2 of them are pretty tiny, I'd say maybe 4-6 months, and I...

    New phantasticus

    I just got these three pairs in today, and snapped some pics before adding the fake plants to their quarantine tanks (figured after I do I may never find them again). I have a 4th pair coming in next week along with some henkels, and my 4th clutch of sikorae eggs hatched last night (pics coming...

    Does this look like a male?

    The person who is purchasing Nibbler wants to start looking for an unrelated mate for him. I'm guessing by the stripe it's a boy, but given that these were my first babies, I'm not very experienced on sexing them. If anyone knows of a reliable way to sex smallish juvies, please let me know.

    Gonatodes albogularis need help with subspecies

    I just picked up 1.2 Gonatodes albogularis from the importer this morning, and all I know is that they were imported from Nicaragua. I've tried searching for what subspecies that would be, and still couldn't find any info other than they aren't fuscus. Can anyone help ID them? Thanks :)

    Introducing Elmer, my little glued egg sikorae (and the prettiest by far)

    I accidentally dented in the top of this guys egg and covered it in hairline cracks while putting the lid on the tupperware (I didn't realize the circle on the lid dipped down so far, and it crunched the egg). I first patched it with about 3 layers of elmer's glue and a single ply piece of...

    Baby sikorae

    Figured I would share my two newest additions, they just hatched yesterday morning. Three more clutches cooking, the next due to hatch in a few weeks, so curious if those will come out looking similar to these (just like dad). After shed (has a slight kinked tail at the base it looks like...

    Sikorae necropsy, graphic photos

    My female Dara stopped eating about 3 weeks ago. She had laid three clutches of infertile eggs prior, with the last eggs being the week before she stopped eating. She didn't go to the bathroom for about a week, even with daily showers, and then when she did go, it was about 5 times the normal...

    Batman

    Sorry, couldn't resist sharing this pic I took last night. My bf was yelling at me to come out to the living room, and well, apparently helmeted geckos are better glass climbers than people give them credit for lol. I gently opened the cage to try and help him down, but his toenails weren't...

    Lineatus questions

    More tank and gecko questions (again). I did a search for lineatus temps and found a bunch of different answers, so I figured I would ask here, what is their max temp? I'll be getting a 3'x18"x3' Exo Terra tank hopefully within the next month or so, it's my reward for building all the displays...

    Building a U. guentheri tank

    I've got an adult pair of cb guentheri coming in the next couple of weeks, and want to get a head start on their tank. I've been looking online for tank advice, and not finding very much available info, other than they're lower humidity compared to other species, and they like smaller branches...

    Mini sikorae tank

    I was making new displays for my booth, and wanted to do as varied examples as possible for planted vivariums. I made one a mini replica of my larger Exo Terra sikorae tank, but this time in a 12"x12"x18" Zoomed, in which I someday hope to be able to house baby sikorae <fingers crossed>. This...

    Pachydactylus (Palmatogecko) rangei tail drop

    I accidentally posted this in the wrong section originally and can't seem to delete it. I didn't know there was a section for this genus. I just received a pair in the mail, and the male dropped his tail in transit. Just wondering, since I've never kept this species before, if they're able to...

    Pachydactylus (Palmatogecko) rangei tail drop

    I just received a pair in the mail, and the male dropped his tail in transit. Just wondering, since I've never kept this species before, if they're able to regenerate their tails. Thanks

    Uncalcified eggs

    Both females were gravid, one started laying a few days ago, first one egg which was broken and dripping down the side, and then another about 12 hours later which was again broken, this time adhered to a branch. Yesterday the second girl laid, the first egg was adhered to a branch as well...

    Possibly gravid female?

    Three of my sikorae females have gotten rather chunky lately, with a weight gain of 2-4 grams each over the past 2 weeks. We've had them all for several months now, and they just finished meds two weeks ago, so not sure if it's them being off Albon, or if they could possibly be gravid. The one...

    Has anyone tried a moonlight blue LED light on their Uros?

    My friend just found a box of these aquarium LED moonlights, basically a little single blue light on a suction cup that you can either stick inside the tank on the glass or rest on top of the screen. I was thinking that might be fun so I can watch mine hunt, but I wanted to know if anyone had...

    Uroplatus sikorae WCs: Questions on quarantine

    I obtained 4 Uroplatus sikorae approximately a week and a half ago and currently have them in quarantine in 2 separate cages. Before I started them on meds (while trying to collect fecals for testing) they were eating roughly 8-14 medium crickets a night per cage, so 4-7 crickets per gecko. The...
