Pretty much as the subject title says:
Are Strophurus geckos temperature sexed?
It just seems like there are rather more males available of most Strophurus species at any given time than females. For species like taenicauda, where the male is a bit more "attractive" to the casual market, I can see it as just people wanting to make more money by keeping females for breeding, and selling off the extra males, but for the rest of them, it seems like there should be a few more females available.
Then again, maybe I had just considered most Strophurus as being well outside of my "affordable and able to keep properly healthy" range until just recently.
Regardless of the actual male:female availability ratio, I'm still curious as to whether anyone has done any informal research into hatchling sex ratios and incubation temperature differences for this genus.
