in 'the pet owners guide to the leopard gecko' it says that wonder geckos can get to around 7-8 inches. they dig also, have delicate skin and should have temps of around 32 degrees with a higher local surface temperature of about 40 degrees. also the require access to plenty of clean drinking water as humidity should be low. no UV light needed. diet- crix,locust hoppers, dust food with vits and minerals.

these are just breif notes from book. the book is a caresheet for leopard geckos not wonder geckos and only has a page or so on it. hope this helps although i cannot guarentee it is all fact.

Theres is a book you can get (only from amazon us it seems) but its got some good info on Teratoscincus in general.

http://www.amazon.com/o/ASIN/0916984397/ref=s9_asin_title-1966_g1/103-3324173-6911022?%5Fencoding=UTF8&coliid=I3MF160LBYRW2&colid=1GTQX14XES61P&pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=right-1&pf_rd_r=0QGDXMNN1J0GDJ14JENP&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=280762101&pf_rd_i=507846[/url]

Microlepis grow to 4 inches, there are no caresheets for them that i am aware of.

Keep them the same as the other teratoscincus

http://www.gekkota.com/html/teratoscincus_scincus_ssp_.html

I have written a caresheet for the Teratoscincus group but I using a new computer and the care sheet is on the old one, when I get a bit of spare time I'll post it for you.

Hatchling T. scincus
