Phelsuma Lineata Dorsivittata

[pono]

Hi guys, I was wondering what these guys look like as i cant find any pics anywhere, and someone near me stocks them occaisionally. Does anyone have any pics of ones they have owned, or just any pics in general will do. I would be very thankful of a reply. Cheers,

Ed

Hi, It's good to know they are a nice species to keep as there is someone very near me selling them. Sadly i'm not going to hamm (because i'm only 14 and i'd have to go with a parent and they dont want to go). It's nice to know they are being bred sucessfully though . Thanks,

Ed

nigristriata

the have about the size of a klemmeri .
come frome the island Mayotte ,the same as Robertmertensi.
the are not to difficult to keep ,males mostly have more red on there backs.
breeds very wel.
I find it also a nice species to keep.

 

[Primehunter02]

thanks

chould you beable to tell me the asking price for 2 females

 

[roger]

I think here in Europ it would be 50 to 70 euro each .
last year there were more males than females.

 

[Primehunter02]

could you give me the size in cm or mm also do you know any shops who sell them because im finding it difficult to find them

 

[Primehunter02]

could you tell me if there are any shops in the uk and whats there size in cm or mm please

 

[pono]

There are very few of the more unusual phelsuma in the uk. Your best bet is probably emailing the bloke at Phelsuma UK - Everything for your Day Geckos.

[roger]

the size wil be about 9 -10 cm max
i think you cant find them in shops , but maybe on a fair , or by a breeder at home.
i have some of them , but i live in holland and i think thats no option .
so i think you best look on internet for a breeder nearby .

succes ,roger

 

[Primehunter02]

thanks i will look for a breeder but befor i do what type of habitat to they thrive in

 

[roger]

i keep them the same as al my other phelsuma's ,
axualy no special treadment , the are not that demanding.
(sorry for my bad englisch but i hope you understand what i mean)

There are only a handful, if any in britain. Your best bet would be going to hamm or something.
