Aeluroscalabotes felinus

[Sunrise Reptile]

I've had my eye on this species (Malaysian Cat Gecko) for quite some time, so when I saw a few available at the last Midwest Reptile Show a couple weeks back, I couldn't resist but snatch up a group of three. They're so very cool, and I'm enjoying them beyond words. I'm so thrilled to be able to work with these, and hope to eventually produce some captive bred hatchlings in the future.

Sorry guys, but yeah, it is only one of the three. They're strictly nocturnal, and I didn't want to disturb all of them. None the less, I hope you enjoy these pictures.

Very cool! Ive been wanting to get one of those when I first saw them a long time ago. That was when they first started to came into the hobby. Are they CB or WC?

Thanks, Bryan. Wild caught, as these are seldom bred in captivity. Not an easy task either, from what I've read.

No matter. I'm up for a challenge. :main_evilgrin:

How much do these normally run around?

 

[Sunrise Reptile]

I believe $50 - $80 per. Captive bred I would expect to be a fair bit more.

Very nice! These have been on the list for a while. I have enough "fragile" animals to worry about for now .

How have you found them compared to your Uroplatus?

 

[Sunrise Reptile]

Thanks Much! I really like them quite a lot. :main_yes:

They seem quite a bit more "laid back" than any Leaftail I've worked with. Time will tell though.

Good to know. Keep us posted
