New little E. agricolae

[Hannibal]

Just got this cutie this morning.....introducing Bugatti, (Boogie's future girlfriend)

and my favorite photo sofar...

 

[Dimidiata]

OMGz its so tiny and cute!

 

[Hannibal]

Thanks! Yea, it's very tiny; just under 2" long & weighs just 0.7g. My tiniest gecko yet, but just by a hair....my little garglet Shrimp was 1.1g.

 

[Dimidiata]

How big do they get?

 

[Hannibal]

Adult sizes are 4-6" long with males around 5-6g & females 10-13g. Care is very simple, pretty much the same care as Rhacodactylus, but with smaller enclosures.

Bugatti is currently in a small KK & Boogie is in a 15x15x23" which can house adult trio with plenty of space.

Sweet. Thanks, always nice to learn about new geckos. Hadnt heard of these little guys.

You should hit up the next large expo in your area & see if someone has some for sale that you can hold, they are such finger huggers. They shuffle/waddle as the move along branches & vines, it just puts a smile on your face watching these guys.

I think DDReptiles vends at the Daytona show sometimes & he breeds this species. JB (stolenmilkcrates on YouTube) has some great videos of hers, you should check them out.

What is the common name for these guys?

 

[Hannibal]

Scientific name: Eurydactylodes agricolae & Common name: Bauer's Chameleon Gecko; however, most people just refer to them as agricolae.

the lucky guy

and their enclosures

Boogie's in the large enclosure of course, Bugatti is in the small KK until she grows a little more then she'll go in the large KK that is under her current enclosure.
