Satanic Leaf Tail Geckos

[Laooda]

I have a male import that I've successfully kept since last April. He's in a small Exo Terra that has a cloth cover over the screen top to keep the humidity in. He has doubled in size since I've had him...he gets heavily misted every night, and has done really well with dusted crickets. That being said... I also purchased another imported Satanic Eye at the same time that didn't make it over 2 weeks with me. I never saw him eat... If your going to purchase an import, I'd strongly suggest that you watch it eat before you bring it home... Just my coin on the matter!

Thank you. I thought I'd seen a pic of one in one of your posts but I couldn't remember which one...lol.

He has the Zoo Med terrarium (think it's the same with a screen top). I will tell him about the feeding issue. That would definitely make all the difference. I succesfully kept two imported Mali Uros for a while (rescues), but they were both feeding (undernourished, but with the change in husbandry, they were eager to eat), but I've heard of them perishing due to feeding problems.

Thanks again!

No problem at all! They ROCK to keep... I just wanted to add that the imports can also go south really fast... that was a sad situation to be in. I really hope he decides to get one (or more )!!! You know you'll haft to post a BUNCH of pics!
