I've just started keeping Uroplatus henkeli and it is a great species to work with. Henkeli grows large, but is far easier to keep because it is generally hardier than other Uroplatus. They are also very commonly captive-bred, and can handle fluctuations in temperature and humidity rather well. I really enjoy watching them, and they are beautiful animals!
