Fantastic! Uroplatus fimbriatus are my favorite geckos. Can you please tell me how you keep and breed them? Anyone who knows please add you input? Thanks.

Well there pretty basic.Same care as Cresteds only a lil more humid.I keep mine at about 74-77 degrees year round.With the humidity at about 77%.Feed them heavy on roaches and give them a photoperiod.Basically if you meet there standards they will reproduce.

What kind of cage should you use? Do you buy a certain kind of roach to feed them? I take it that they should be kept cool, not warm.

Well for a trio you could get a 55 gallon and stand it on its end and get 2 of the acrylic toppers from Alan www.junglehabitatsplastics.com,and that should work well.Or you could just use a 29 gallon or 30 gallon tall.Most of the larger Uroplatus i keep in acrylic enclosures that are 3'high x 1'deep x 2 ft. wide.There definatly worth the time once get established specimens.

Jeremy, I heard in the chat that you were working with satanics, but I didn't want to invade it. Do you have any hatchlings or adults for sale? Send me a pm, could you?

 

[Jeanne]

How much do they usually cost?

 

[Tokays_Unlimited]

Depends on where you are getting them from Jeanne.Usually anywhere from 75-200$.Again theres the whole factor of are they WC or CBB and are you getting them from a wholesaler in quanity.
