TRUE Pachydactylus bibroni are likely non-existant in the hobby. They are from a restricted range in South Africa (fauna are not legally exported from) and most believe what is imported as "P. bibroni" is actually "P. turneri". The latter are imported regularly and there are lots of hobbyist keeping them, though few actually produce captive bred offspring. I'm sure if you ask around, you'll find a few fellow keepers...

Harold is correct!There are some tough restrictions on South African species of Geckos.Basicslly if its not CBB there with documentation then its not leaving there.There are about 5 people in the U.S. with true P.bibroni.
The difference is very little between the 2 subspecies.
TRUE P.bibroni have more pointed tubucular scales as P.turneri do not possess
the more pointed scales.
The care is the same,hot dry(with ocasionall mistings)and alot of tall flat slabs of rocks.Basically like T.a.annularis.
Hope that adds to it a little.
