Nicole,
Thanks for the congrats! He is a cute little guy! Yes, it is Geckonia
chazaliae which was profiled in the January 2001 issue of Reptiles. No, it
is not the same as P. pictus....different Genus. I have had hatchlings with
lateral brown stripes in the past, but this is the first to hatch with the
solid white stripe. Definitely a keeper!
Stacy
