My trio of rubbers are my most recent acquisition. The most surprising thing about them, for me, is that they are little garbage disposals. It took over a month to get them eating, but once they started, they didn’t and won’t stop. They end up with the leftovers of trying to get my housies switched to F/T, and they don’t care if it’s brained, boiled, scented, warmed, cooled, whatever.
Candoia is probably my favorite genus, hands down, but not for hobbyists who are looking for an “easy” species.
The gecko is the “striped” variation of Paroedura picta, and yep, also known as ocelot gecko, pictus gecko, panther gecko, or fat-headed gecko. Here’s a photo of my female that has “wild type” pattern. I have one pair; the male is chill and super hand-tame and the female is a spaz that dive-bombs be every time I open the tub. Can’t tell which is “normal” lol.
