Hmm, somehow the pictures I have submitted have turned from picturatus to
luteopicturatus
which is (as far as I know) not a valid name for my animals ... Greg, is
this some new
information that you took into account? If not, can you please correct it to
picturatus? Thanks!

I can only agree - I kept / keep my picturatus / kimhowelli together with
smaller Phelsuma, and
it work�s quite well (but don�t put them too moist, they like it a bit
drier).

I cannot transfer your given size to metric scale, but everything else
sounds quite fine - they
like Bamboo a lot, eat fruit as well as insects and you can discern a male
by the black throat
and the hemipenis-bulges. Overall they are hardy, but if it�s a WC I�d go
for some fecals ... .
Good luck,
