We will try to still get videos out for all of you in this stressful time.

Little bro(or chick) at the top was suuuuuper offended you took that hide away. These little guys are so cool!
Thank you guys for this awesome video. I got all the information I need to set up my geckos.
(I just found your channel, but already subscribed and can't wait to watch all your other videos. :) )
Glad we could help you they are an awesome little species of gecko. 😁
I leave mealworms in a bowl for mine and they use it like a vending machine hahah
My two dune geckos glass surf all the time. I have them in a 12" X 30" X 9", basically a twenty gallon long that's slightly a little shorter. I'm worried they're not eating.
I was wondering if breeding would be successful with just two elegant geckos
Yes we originally only had a male and female pair before we bought another pair, they bred and laid eggs and we even have one of the offspring still. 😁
Does the female lay her eggs out in the open or bury them? If you should keep them in dry sand, but keep a moist incubator, how do they manage this in the wild in such a hot environment? I have 1 F/2 M's/1 young F. I keep her separated because I was told the adults would "beat her up"?? I keep her separated so I can feed her small crickets. I absolutely love them. I wish my Leopard Gecko could live with a buddy, but he's going from a 20 gal to a 36. I live in Pennsylvania, the US and they are really hard to find.
Glad to see someone else keeping this species, our female would partially or fully bury the eggs, I would imagine the deeper the eggs are buried the more humidity they would be in but would never have moisture touching the eggs. We keep a colony of males and females and they establish their own hierarchy.
What about keeping other animals along side the gecko’s?
I don’t believe there are any appropriate species to keep alongside dwarf sand geckos they are better suited to colonies of their own species.
Hi do you no were i could get some of these from please
Two of mine developed large white bulges on either side of their necks a couple months ago. No one knew what it was and they seemed just as happy and active as usual, so i thought nothing of it. Suddenly they started fluctuating weight immensely, becoming stick-thin very quickly and then round and fat suddenly, then back to thin, etc. Then they just stayed thin (they were not underfed- my third was and is completely fine, and isn’t stealing all the food either as i would find extra food dead in their hides that they had refused to eat). Today i found my smallest one dead, so thin and translucent i was scared of breaking him as i picked him up. The other one is refusing to eat and will probably die in the next few days. I moved the remaining healthy one to temporary housing to let the sick one die in a comfortable environment… I’m devastated.
So sorry to hear that, one of our females is currently overweight and has 2 visible calcium sacks behind her head, she stopped laying eggs a few months ago so we think that’s why she’s storing too much calcium.
@@PredatoryExotics oh that’s interesting, that’s what i thought they were but no one could confirm as no one i can find really knows much about these lil species
@@PredatoryExotics by the way, my little guy is fighting! I’m not sure if he ate a small cricket during the night but he seems slightly more okay
Good news, because a lot of these animals are wild caught you don’t know what parasites they have or how old they are so sometimes they crash for no reason.
Can you hold them like leopard geckos ?
They are a lot smaller than leopard geckos so they have to be handled a lot more delicately and some individuals can be more skittish than others but our captive bred animals are a lot calmer.
Do you do brumation period if so how ?
Is it better to keep them in colonies or do they do better by themselves? Thank you
Most people keep these in colonies and they can be kept in colonies with multiple males as it will increase breeding activity.
Predatory Exotics thank you so much
Where do you get them from? (Uk)
We got our geckos from purple pet centre and emsworth aquaria and reptiles. 😁
Get a real camera 🤣 *GrAiNy*
If you check out some of our recent video we have one now :)
ive had a group of 5 (4f 1m) for 8 months now, they are eating well, chirping and have grown nice and plump, but no eggs yet. I think my enclosure is perfect for them (lots of space, bioactive, light uvb, radiant heat, excavator clay and sand, live succulents), but no eggs yet. Can I email you photos of the enclosure and the animals to see if im missing anything? I realy want to breed these guys! if so, please drop your email :) thanks
We got your email, cool setup! We will get back to you soon! 😁
