Anyone know any breeder with a web site? Also does anyone have some good info on breeding these little guys?

Thanks

I have successfuly bred them along with many others. They are fairly straight forward. I do recommend keeping the breeders on a substrate of calci sand. Also if you plan on breeding make sure you have plenty of pin heads or fruit flys available for the hatchlings. They eat a ton!

how many crickets do the babies eat?
and how often (every day/every other day?)???

I breed these guys as well and the hatchlings are like the adults, they are pigs! The babies should be fed every night until they put on some size. Some hatchlings will eat 6-10 pin heads with no problem. Keep them on a paper towel substrate until they are larger. As they age put them on some very fine sand substrate. Good Luck.

Not sure how to breed them. But oddly enough, I found two eggs in my viper enclosure today. The down side is that the male hurt the female very badly. I just found her dead not more than five minutes ago. Lesson here, maybe check all enclosures more than once a day. A lady in Cols, OH has many viper geckos for sale. Her e-mail is dragon@dacor.net
