Sphaerodactylus vincenti festus

Hello

Here is a new species that found its way to my place

When stressed she is not at her best, mainly brown but once accustome she will show absolutely beautiful colours!!

So far I have just a female, hoping to get her a mate in December

Here is the lady

Cheers

They look way too cute! What kind of lighting do they get - UV / spots etc?

 

[Yann]

Hi!!

They get natural daylight T8 tubes. They do not require basking spot neither UV light!!
Cheers

Thats really cool. Hard to understand that they are not a lot more popular and common with such easy care requirements. Are they shy?

 

[Yann]

I know!!

I explain it by several factors:
They are still rather uncommonly find in the hobby, but more and more people are getting interested in them.

Otherwise, yes they can be shy, but if they get used by you and your intervention in the tank, they are far less ...but for sure sometimes, I don't see them for a few days!!

Cheers
