Just had a few of these guys arrive yesterday - thought I would post a picture of a female that was ready to shed, and after ten minutes she was completely shed. :nilly: Just thought it was kind of cool, of course it was right after I had misted the tank. Very cool species of Gecko.
Anyone else worked with the species before?

Cool little cutie. I haven't worked with them before, but after seeing these pics i might need to

I'll have to get some shots of the others, as every one has a different pattern/coloration to them. Very well known to have an aggression/bite similar to a Tokay Gecko, but I have yet to see that from this group.
 
An uncommon and underrated species. Very nice! How many and what sex ratio did you get?

New to the area from my understanding, but apparently very common in parts of Germany (?) if I remember right. So new to me, but old to them; either way they are a very cool looking species of Gecko!
Paid for a 2.2, but on the receipt after they arrived it had said 2.2 or 1.3 plus one for free SO, it could be either lol. Based on what I saw before they quickly disappeared, it would appear to be a 2.2 with the sex being unknown on the fifth one, as it's too young to be sure just yet.
 
Sounds like you got a good ratio to me!

Even though I never see them all, lol, otherwise it's a great ratio!
Few more shots, the youngest one popped up after I misted the tank for the night, and I managed to catch him drinking the water from the leaves.
