Frenchie and SA/Namibian gecko lover!

Parts of my gecko collection.

Pachydactylus haackei CB pair





Afroedura loveridgei CB trio- I'm the first European to have hatched some juveniles.



Juveniles hatched at home:



Ptenopus kochi, CB, I have 1:1:1 from different bloodlines, probably the only European group of this species.







Pachydactylus sp., new species, from Central Namibia, most likely of the oreophilus clade.

Juvenile:



Adult:



Pachydactylus visseri, I have a CB adult pair and eggs incubating:





Pachydactylus mclachlani, I have a breeding pair and eggs too now:



Juvenile hatched at home:



Homopholis fasciata - I had a pair but sadly lost the male.



Narudasia festiva, CB pair, probably one of the only European pair, if not the only one.



Homopholis wahlbergii, I have a LTC pair



Chondrodactylus turneri CB breeding pair, here is the female. I have seen some WC from 6 euros in Hamm but I preferred to buy this female for 50 and my male for 30 as both are CB. I have had lots of newborns from them.



Well, do I need to write the name of this species?



Pachydactylus caraculicus juveniles, CB







Pachydactylus fasciatus, I have a CB pair which I hope will breed this year:





Last but not least, Pachydactylus maraisi, desribed as a new species in 2011, formerly known as the black coastal form of P. bicolor. I have a pair but the female is still too young to be put with the male.

Outstanding collection of Geckos , the maraisi are stunning.

Your Chondrodactylus angulifer is it of namib origin?

[Qball]

Really nice collection! Like the vivarium setups aswell.

They are angulifer angulifer from a German breeder, so I assume the original bloodline is from SA

Here are some enclosures for the Ptenopus and pachys

I can just imagine the work that goes into feeding them, cleaning etc etc...

Good looking collection!

That is a awesome collection! Good luck with all the breeding and raising.

Very nice gecko's and enclosures, just out curiosity how do you enclosures open? I can't seem to figure it out. It looks like you slide the front panel up.

That's right for the smaller ones, it helps preventing small and fast species from escaping. For larger species I use either ExoTerra enclosures or more traditional enclosures with sliding doors in front.

Thanks to all for your kind comments, don't hesitate to ask about the husbandry of these geckos

Awesome Awesome collection! I'm always happy when I see that you have opened a thread, I know that I am in for a treat then! I love Narudasia festiva, such beautiful animals, had the privilege of seeing them when I was in Namibia. Very beautiful tails, just tiny! What do you feed your smaller geckos?

[thorrshamri]

Pinhead crickets, they are much more nutritious than wingless fruitflies, and occasionally red runner roaches babies (B. lateralis). Thanks for your kind comments
