hello, yes i do. Great Geckos. I am breeding the striped ones.

Oh great, thats a beautiful lizard you got there. My question are, at wath temprature do you keep them, and how much humidity do they need. I was offered to buy them really cheap when a bought i couple of Uroplatus sikorae and i couldnt resist them. They are so nice-looking geckos, anything you could tell me would be great help, also if you have some websites that you find good.
What did you think of my C.elegans, i believe thats the female but im not sure since they still are very young.

best regards

What type of substrate are you keeping her on? The moss looks good, but is that mudd there>? Just wondering.Thanks

I had just misted the cage and thats why it looks a bit "muddy", i used to keep them on clean pot-soil but i changed to spagnum-moss now. It has more drainage and dont get that muddy look that you saw on the pic.
