PICTUS GECKOS! Care Guide!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 авг 2019
- The Madagascar Ground Gecko (Paroedura pictus), also more commonly known as the Pictus Gecko, is one of the best species for novice reptile keepers. They are a small gecko that does great in captivity. Pictus Geckos are very skittish when little, but as they grow, they become quite tame. Once your gecko reaches about 7 grams in size, you can regularly start to handle them. We recommend handling them near the ground so that if your gecko does fall from your hand, it won't seriously injure them. In this video we learn all about these beautiful geckos and learn how to best care for them.

1. do the eggs need moisture, or is dry warm substrate enough? I understand to seperate male and female after some time, so which one i can put together with the children, because i have a big enclosure than with only one gecko(waste of space) and how long do you seperate them till you bring them together again?
I have one that I put with a male at 6 months of age and it didn't have a bulk at the start of it's tale, and now like one month after I saw it had a small bulk at the end but I have seen them mate so I'm not sure and it has a small head and body. Can you maybe help? Cause I don't know it's a male or female?
We need to supliment every feeding? Other suplemenets beside Calcium? Feeding diference after/before 1 yr?
Supplementation every second or third feeding will be sufficient. We have a calcium/vitamin mix we use, the only difference will be when they are younger you can feed more often then when they older. Older geckos can be fed less frequently in order to avoid them from becoming too fat. Thanks!
@@UltimateExoticsReptiles Thanks! I really appreciate it.
Can this also be use for stumpfii?
Yes it can be :) Thanks
Is that gecko ground?? Sir??
Would a ten gallon aquarium hold one
The container they had the three in is smaller than a 10 gallon, so yeah they’d do okay, but I’d always recommend a 20 gallon- they’re terrestrial geckos so they love to roam- and sometimes climb
Are they legal in Cape town
Hi Owen, yes they are allowed on permit, thanks : )
I thought pictus were not nocturnal?
What is the morf in the thumbnail
Goldfinch Productions the one in the thumbnail is a juvenile Striped Pictus😊👍🏻
How often do you feed babies?
We feed them every second day : )
@@UltimateExoticsReptiles thank you!
How many feedings and how many insects pet feeding?
We feed 3 - 4 crickets 3 times a week and then have a shallow calcium bowl which we have a few mealworms in at all times. Thanks😊
@@UltimateExoticsReptiles ok thank you!
@@UltimateExoticsReptiles no difference beetween before/affter 1yr?
@@UltimateExoticsReptiles in the calcium dish is ca+d3 or just ca?
Can hou keep one male or you need a couple
Hi there, yes you can keep one male in a setup. Just make sure to never put two mature males together in the same enclosure :)
@@UltimateExoticsReptiles ok my son wants just ome male
Two females is ok but never two males
