Entry #6 🦎

Hemidactylus imbricatus
(Carrot-Tail Viper Gecko)

Originally described as Teratolepis fasciata, it was later reclassified under the genus Hemidactylus.

A small but solidly built gecko, reaching around 8–10 cm total length. The compact body, triangular head, and strongly keeled overlapping scales give it a rough, almost viper-like appearance.

Native primarily to Pakistan, with possible records from northwestern India. It inhabits dry scrublands, rocky outcrops, stone walls, and crevices, blending perfectly with bark, rock, and sand tones. In parts of its range, it shares habitat with other geckos — including the well-known Eublepharis macularius — showing how diverse these arid ecosystems are.

Ideal daytime temperatures range around 24–30°C, with access to a slightly warmer basking area and a natural drop at night. Moderate humidity combined with good ventilation reflects its semi-arid origins.

The thick, tapered tail — often sand-colored with darker patterning — gives the species its common name. Combined with the textured scales, it creates a truly prehistoric look.

Mostly nocturnal, alert, and quick-moving. Best appreciated as a display species in a structured setup with rocks and hiding spots.

Small size… prehistoric vibes 🦎🦎🔥🔥

And that officially completes the micro gecko highlights 👀

Entry #5 🦎

Gonatodes albogularis
(Yellow-Headed Gecko / White-Throated Gecko)

A beautiful, diurnal gecko species reaching up to 12 cm total length as adults. Slim, quick, and extremely alert, this species is active throughout the day and constantly aware of its surroundings. recently added to my collection 👀

Native to Central and northern South America, they are commonly found on tree trunks, rocks, fences, and even near buildings. They prefer warm climates with good airflow and access to vertical surfaces.

Ideal daytime temperatures range around 24–29°C, with a slightly warmer basking area and a gentle drop at night. Moderate humidity with proper ventilation helps replicate their natural habitat.

The male is truly striking — displaying a vibrant orange head with a distinct blue stripe near the mouth and a noticeable blue collar around the neck. The darker body creates a strong contrast, making those head colours stand out dramatically.

The female is more subtly coloured in earthy browns and soft greys, perfectly adapted for camouflage against bark and natural backgrounds.

Primarily a display species — active, territorial, and constantly moving across vertical surfaces. Best appreciated in a structured, naturalistic setup with plenty of climbing space.

Small size… impossible to ignore 🔥

Final micro Geckos highlights coming 🔜 👀🦎

Now we officially start with the micro geckos highlights 🦎🦎

Entry #4 🦎

Lygodactylus conraui
(Cameroon Dwarf Gecko / Conrau’s Dwarf Gecko)

A true small-sized dwarf gecko, reaching only about 6–8 cm total length as adults. Tiny, fast, and fascinating to observe. As you can see in the photos, they are incredibly tiny, fitting easily on a fingertip.

The male is the real showstopper — bright yellow blending into green with a beautiful bluish sheen along the back, especially when fired up.The contrast between the yellow head and tail and the soft turquoise/bluish body is just stunning.

The female is more subtle and earthy in tone — darker olive/brown with natural camouflage, but just as elegant in her own way.

This is mainly a display species — very active during the day, always watching, always moving. Best appreciated in a well-planted naturalistic setup.

Small body… big character 🔥
Just look at those amazing colours.

Stay tuned to see the other 2 micro gecko highlights coming next 🦎🦎

Next up:

Paroedura pictus
(Ocelot Gecko / Madagascar Ground Gecko)

Morph: Xanthic Stripe

A hardy, terrestrial species native to Madagascar 🇲🇬 and very underrated in my opinion. Naturally patterned and beautifully camouflaged, the Xanthic morph enhances the yellow tones, giving it a cleaner and more vibrant look.

This is a small to medium-sized species, usually reaching 12–15 cm (5–6 inches) in total length. Robust, easy to care for, and suitable for beginners. Mostly nocturnal but often active during the evening hours.

Calm temperament, strong feeders, and they adapt very well to naturalistic or bioactive setups.

That’s it for today 😁😝

Micro geckos hightlights up next… should I start today? 👀🔥
Stay tuned 🙌🔜🦎🦎

⚠️ Quick note before we continue:

None of the micro geckos I’ll be posting are for sale.
They are all part of my personal collection and long-term hobby. 👀🔥

Now… something different 🐸

This time not a reptile — but an amphibian.

Dendrobates leucomelas
(The Yellow-Banded Poison Dart Frog)

I added 3 specimens to my collection. This species is famous for its bold yellow and black pattern and confident, active behaviour. Native mostly to Venezuela, they are one of the hardier dart frog species and are considered perfect dart frogs for beginners. They thrive in well-planted bioactive setups.

Small frogs… big personality 💛🖤

And don’t worry — the micro geckos hightlights are coming soon 😏
Stay tuned — more surprises loading.

Hi everyone 👋

After a few weeks inactive, I was working behind the scenes on some new updates — and I’m finally ready to share them 😉

A couple of weeks ago I had the chance to attend the Milano Reptile Meeting — always inspiring to see such a variety of geckos and meet fellow hobbyists.

Let’s start with a species everyone knows and loves — the one that started my hobby and this page 🦎

Leopard Gecko
Eublepharis macularius

Morph: GT (Green & Tangerine)

A terrestrial, nocturnal species native to Afghanistan, Pakistan, and parts of India. Unlike many other geckos, they have movable eyelids and lack adhesive toe pads. They’re hardy, beginner-friendly, and come in a huge variety of morphs.

I recently added a stunning GT female to my collection, and I couldn’t be happier with her colours 🔥

More collection highlights coming soon… stay tuned 👏
