Great pic of your Dwarf Rock Gecko. Is that specimen WC or CB? Thanks for posting.

Can you explain their captive care requirements? Thanks for sharing its the first time I have ever seen one. Looks very cool.

wow, very nice !

The head of Pristurus always reminds me of that of A. persica.

the picture is a CB juvie, and they are a very cool species to work with.

I have mine set-up in a 12x12x12 cube, which is suitable for adult animals. I keep em hot and dry. A sand substrate, with some broken pieces of slate and i have the temp about 85 ambient with a 95 degree basking area. They are diaurnal so the basking spot is a must. They are very active and eat all the normal bugs.

take care

Actually that animal is mature just a young adult.I can actually gaurantee it.
