Re: Uroplatus Phantasticus
Wow, they are awesome! They are my fav gecko species. I've been wanting some since I was little. Are they as difficult to care for as I've heard?

Re: Uroplatus Phantasticus
It depends on what you are used to keeping. I have 11 chameleons so for me they aren't difficult. They have very strict environment needs. Most phants are WC and that poses problems because it is difficult to treat them for parasites. I just got on a list for some CBs so hopefully I'll get a breeding CB trio in the fall. If you need/want a good care sheet for them I can send you one. Reading through the care sheet should be able to help you determine whether you want to get into them or not.
Hope that helps,
Amanda

Re: Uroplatus Phantasticus
They're amazing looking, but the tiny size and the very narrow environmental tolerances have always scared me off, as has the WC situation - as Amanda said, dealing with parasites (or any other health issues) in geckos that size has to be VERY difficult.
I'd love to see more pics.
Mountain bikes are for slow people, and reptiles are far better pets than cats & dogs!

Re: Uroplatus Phantasticus
Nice!
Thanks for sharing, I love looking at them and that's all I will do is look (for now). They are great but, as much as I'd like some I'm full up!

Re: Uroplatus Phantasticus
Thanks everyone for all the nice comments! The first one has been with me since early October of 09. The more colorful male has been with me since mid march. Both females were WC and didn't make it past a week or so.
