|
|
I was soooo lucky to find these two beauties at the Houten show this weeknd, They are Uroplatus ebenaui, other wise known as spear (leaf) tailed geckos. The male has been in captivity for two years and the juvie was sold as a captive bred female( fingers crossed that it is a female). So I now have a small breeding group. Im still on the look out for more, but just never expected to find any.
Heres some photos of the male
