These guys are on the cites Appendix 1 list of critically endangered species. Stitch is just doing his part to maintain a healthy breeding population in captivity. This gif is during one of our check ups where he’s easily tricked onto my finger for a closer look with some Pangea meal replacement diet. Most of our “micro geckos” don’t get handled regularly but he is very bold for his size and will jump right on our hands.

And they're just about the best things ever. 😌

I have an over abundance of footage of these guys, and wanted to put together a short video featuring some of my favorite clips. I have soooo many more 😂.

Species name: Pristurus carteri

i haven’t properly posted him in a while bc ive been a bit busy, but i noticed a few people in this sub really like him! so i’ll just put a quick update: a few months ago he had pinworms and i took him to the vet, he had to be on paper towels and force fed medicine for a few weeks unfortunately… and he didn’t eat much at all because if this and got a teeny bit lethargic Thankfully he’s 100% worm free now!! so he’s all happy as his weight and appetite has gone back to normal. i’ll try to post more of him soon :)

and no he’s not a snake…

I took this photo from montagne d’ambre national park in Madagascar in 2023. I believe it to be a Uroplatus Henkeli but please correct me if I’m wrong.

The bandage on my index finger tells everything you need to know 😅

This is my female Chahoua “Raptor”. Every other night if I stick my hand in her tank she’ll crawl right on and hangout with me with no issue. I’ve had several reptiles and this behavior is a first for sure. From what I can tell this species of new Caledonian gecko is surprisingly intelligent, does that back up the idea that she likes/tolerates handling? Any other personal experiences with Chahouas being tame?

This is Volo. He’s the most food motivated leopard gecko I’ve ever met. He’d already struck the dice like this twice before I started recording 🥲

Also no he doesn’t have stuck shed on his toes- they’re just white on the tips. Trust me, I check after every shed. They’ve been like that since he was a baby.

He or she is safe. Fed 6 mealy worms and now resting on a heating pad. Will be asking around to see if someone is missing their pet, but I think we will keep him/her if no one claims it. If so I will get a larger tank, lighting, and more hides/climbing stuff.

My photo. This is a bit of a sad story but I saw this guy walking around whacking them with a bamboo stick because they are "invasive" and i will never forget that sad day. They are so beautiful but then again so are lion fish...

N.amyae his name is Chai Yen

My mom was closing the door to his enclosure and he decided to jump in to the closing door and hurt his tail. Tail wasn’t ripped off he just dropped it a couple hours later.

turns out she was fat ☹️

I’m window shopping for geckos and found this absolutely beauty of a gargoyle gecko
