Hi Dan,
This gecko, oddly, is very easy to keep. I was very afraid of keeping this
gecko for quite a while, due to it's fragile look. They are not as they
appear. I have been keeping them for several years now with few problems.
I let them warm up good during the day (upper 80's- low 90's F), cool down
good at night ( 50-60 F night), offer multiple hide spots, and vary the
diet. They do seem to sometimes get bored with crickets. I use clay pots
for hiding areas. I don't offer them standing water. I mist only now and
then. The eggs are very fragile! I am no stranger to breaking them. A spoon
works best for scooping them out withthe sand. I kepe the substrate fairly
thin, like 1/2 inch deep. That helps in finding the eggs.
