I really like these guys too, probably my favorite gecko.

They are quickly becoming my 2nd favorite geckos (next to leos, of course!) I really think these darling creatures will become more and more popular as people discover what fun they are to keep and watch. How can anyone resist their sweet little faces and their cool, gentle little personalities? Not to mention, they are actually quite easy to care for compared to other knobtail species. Mine are about as tame as leopard geckos!

I will most likely not be at the NARBC Arlington Show in February... I only have about 30 geckos left for the '07 season. I didn't see a single U. milii at February's show, unless Scott from TLC had some... and he sold out his entire inventory of Aussie geckos in the first hour of the show and then packed up and went home! Darn the bad luck!

I would love to see your caresheet.

I find them pretty easy to keep too.

I keep them in a five gallon enclosure each. They are both only around 4-5 inches so their is a lot of room. Mix of sand and potting soil substrate. Keep one end moist and the other dry. A few hiding spots and live philodendron. I keep one end at around 75-80 and the other are 80-90. Temperature often fluctuates in all my enclosures and the geckos do great! It fluctuates in the wild so why shouldn't it in captivity?

Feed them every 2 or 3 days. Spray them every night.

Great beginner Aussies!

Great beginner Aussies!

Yes, they are! I house all of my females together in a large aquarium similar to you, with a substrate of 50% sand and 50% peat moss, with the warm side (UTH) at about 86-88 degrees and a cool, moist side at room temp. I feed them 3X a week with dusted crix. I have a few that like superworms fed by hand. Here's my female's set-up (you can see a few peeking out of their warm hide:

Well after seeing Marcia's little milli's, I can see why people just love them. They are very cute and have the cutiest little faces and big eyes. And she isn't kidding, those little one are pretty tame.
