PostPosted: Sun Apr 27, 2008 9:09 pm    Post subject: Quick Price Question Reply with quote

can anyone give me the average price for the following gecko species, as i would like one of them, and price wll probably end up being the deciding factor:

- Underwoodisaurus milli
- Viper Gecko
- Nephrurus levis levis
- N. amyae
- Oedura castelnaui
- Oedura monilis

Also if anyone can tell me if they know where i can get any of them from, that would be awesome

I own a pair of N. levis.
A juvie pair can be had for around 600euro. is that around £450?

Milli are now around £50 for an unsexed baby.

N. Amyae are somthing like 1500+ euro.

Vipers around £50 I think.
All can be had from Hamm.

oh ok, well i can not really afford to spend more than £150, so i guess that rules out nephrurus species.

i really like the u. milli, if only i knew where to get some Sad

also what kind of temps and substrate do they need?

and is any lighting required?

yeh i do really like the Nephrurus sp. especially amyae (sp?) and i could save up and get a pair, but i still live at home, and in my parents opinion spending £400 on 2 geckos is stupid, and i probably won't be able to persuade them. so i shall have to wait a few years.

So does anyone know where i can get any U. Milli?

Im 14, I saved up for an adult pair sor was more than that, persueding wasn't too hard.
Mum is 'fairly' understanding, and all you need to say is they will pay for themselves.
I pay for myself though.

I am 17.

I hope you do not mind me asking but how much did the adult pair cost you, and do you have any pics? lol. Which species did you get?

Persuading my dad is easy, i just say i want them, i shall buy them and look after them etc.

but my mum is really hard to convince, especially now that i have quite a few stuff already. but i managed to convince her to let me get my pair of trinkets, and that was after she said i wasn't allowed any more pets lol.

and also i recently got a job, which means i will not be short of money for lookign after them, and apparently they breed easily, so you never know, i may make my money back in a year or 2.

and also, thats a good point David, how did you get to Hamm, did your parents take you?

They were from a private breeder in England.
I have not been to Hamm yet, but have just booked the coach to go in September with mum, I cant wait.

They are N. Levis Levis.

Erm Price = Dont be so nosey ! lol
Sorry I dont like to talk about that on a public forum, if you search around it will give you a good idea.
But for an adult pair it is always going to be a fair bit more than juvies and mine were proven.

Pictures.

Male . . .









Female, [gravid] - - ( awful pics )





Cool
