Default Does anybody keep elegant geckos

Does anybody keep elegant geckos and what are they like I know they are tiny but do they have the same outgoing natures as leo's and blizzards or do they tend to hide away because of their size.

Also my local shop has them for £15 do you think that is a good price.

Default just picked up a breeding set today...

we were a bit surprised when we saw a local pet shop feeding them to snakes we had to go back and rescue as many as possible!

so today we picked up 1.3 adult elegant geckos, and so far I think there great!

very inquisitive and always out at the moment, but I guess they have to settle yet so we'll see if that changes.

there supposed to be very vocal however havn't heard a peep out of them yet.

I paid 40 pound for the four but I had to haggle, going price on the internet seems to be 10 each.

exopet currently has some in stock at the above price so give him a pm if you want them cheaper.

there not really a lizard you can handle but there great fun to watch, you won't be dissapointed.

sorry if this doesn't read well i've written all this surfing the net on my phone!

have fun

paul

They are lovely little critters relatively easy to maintain and care for. Can be a bit secretive. Mine prefer silence and still and complete darkness before they will venture out unless they are being tempted out by a waxworm and then you will see their ruthlessness.
