Very nice... I really enjoy this species. I have a question for you and others who work with chazaliae. I raised up 3 hatchlings that all turned out female. I have been told by a couple of people now that these 3 are unusually large for this species. Has anyone found significant locality differences in helmeted geckos? For comparison purposes, my females range in weight from 14 - 16 grams. I'd be very interested in hearing how this compares to other chazaliae out there. Thanks.

Size differences in chazaliae? No... Ok, maybe a little bit...

Nice animals! It is a very nice species to work with in my opinion.
Hopefully you have soon some offspring of these animals.

Thanks for that link Dan. That's good reading... haven't come across that before. I wonder if 16 grams puts my females anywhere near that "inland locality" size?

About those little Tarentola chazaliae, what do you think about handling. Some geckos are cool with that (Leo Gecko) but some take it very stressing (Petrii).
What about this one?
I am planing to buy a couple of those for my collection
but I'd really like to get something kind-off "interactive" if you get me

Hello I'm Lina from Germany and next week I have to hold a presentation about tarentola chazaliae. Therefore I've got some questions and I hope you can help me.
1. First of all I want to ask if the tarentola chazaliae communicate with each other ?
2. Why does the t.c. can see colours by night? Is it because of their prey?
3. Why does the t.c. has their fat storage not in their tail but in their flank?
4. And does the t.c. molds?
5. And my last question, do you know their immediate ancestors?
I hope you can help me because it is very important for my graduation!
Thank you in advance,
Helene
