Banded Geckos

Fekes Feb 06, 2008 02:16 PM

I was wondering if anybody keeps any type of Banded Geckos? Would they be kept like Leos and Fat Tails?

Thanks

I am down to just one Coleonyx variegatus abbotti, from a previous colony of several abbotti, variegatus and brevis. He's been going strong for almost 5 years now (wild-caught and given to me as an adult).

In general, yeah, you can keep them similarly to leps. www.sundialreptile.com had a good care sheet for them--

I keep 1.1 western banded gecko (Coleonyx variegatus) and I keep them very similar to my leopard geckos.
