Not my tarantulas! ...I have hundreds of small "house spiders" or "dust spiders" in my room where this guy lives, and if one gets into his enclosure...it gets eaten. As seen in the pic he is always on the lookout....

Beautiful gecko. Do you have others and have full setup shot?


Saw one locally here but they wanted too much for it.

Wow! Check out the mug on that lovely beast! Know any reliable vendors of these creatures & what is a fair price for a male and/or breeding group?

I meant to post this earlier:

This pic is a male gecko of the species Lygodactylus williamsi. Females are olive colored instead of blue. Relatively easy to keep. Mine live and breed in this enclosure:



They eat spiders, tiny snails, fruit flies, small roaches and crickets. The female lays 2 eggs about every couple of months, and they are stuck to something. In this photo you can see a cover I glued over an egg that stuck to the front glass on the left side of the image... The male I posted earlier is about 3 1/2 inches long. Maybe 4 but I doubt it.

You can find them online wild caught for around 80-90 bucks per pair, but they normally come in with mites that are easy for me to deal with, but others have had a hard time with them. Captive bred ones are often now available for $200 per pair, maybe a bit more, but I would recommend buying c/b when available.
