How Much???

[LIZARDLOVER]

How much does it cost to buy a leaf tailed gecko? I am talking with the setup and supplies? I have never owned one, but they're grabbing my attention.

There are several species of "leaf-tailed geckos" (aka the Uroplatus genus) and as such initial investment can span a large range. For instance, what species interests you? Would you prefer to get CB or WC? If a larger species (like fimbriatus), I've know a person that keeps them in custom vivaria 2'x2'x4'! Alot of variables involved, but I'd say $300 to acquire and setup a single Uroplatus ebenaui (wild caught animal). Need a bit more info...

Haroldo nailed it on the head. The ebenaui can be tiny and will fit well in a smaller enclosure. While the Fimbriatus will take quite a large area. Also having never owned one, make sure you dive head first into some internet searches to look into their care. They are amazing animals!
