Is there such thing as a "Mossy" crested gecko?? Confused
I've read books and been on forums and have never heard of one of these!! Has anyone else? Maybe it's another name for a different morph... Or was the person in the petshop telling me a load of bull?!? Shocked Evil or Very Mad

He may have meant the Mossy Prehensile Tailed Gecko - Rhacodactylus chahoua

Not Rhacodactylus Ciliatus, but closely related.

Also known as a Flower Gecko, makes it less confusing especially seen as nearlly all Uroplatus are also called Mossy geckos Rolling Eyes

Oh! Shocked
It was definately a crestie! Shocked Rolling Eyes
I'm doubting they know what they're talking about coz when I asked they said..
"I dunno... erm ....It's a Mossy..." Confused
Which wasn't the answer I was expecting!



I starting to think that petshop is a bit rubbish.....

I think they must have been "misinformed" about alot of things!
The crestie must be about a year old now and its in a very small box.....

I'm very much considering rescuing it!... I would like to know what morph it is though! Rolling Eyes As you can see, they weren't too helpful..
