Baby Lygo

[Vicious_Fish]

I just found this little guy in my Lygodactylus williamsi setup this evening. I was about to shut the lights off when I spotted it. It's pretty darn tiny, that's for sure. I'm guess it hatched from one of the probably many eggs that the two females hide in the tank where I can't find them. Tomorrow I'll get some fruit flies and put it in it's own tank. I don't think the parents will/can eat it but you never know. Anyways, enjoy the pics!

A reference to show how tiny these eggs really are.

Well earlier today when I wanted to catch it I couldn't find it but I have seen it twice later in the day and it seems to be doing fine. It's out basking with the adults. I would like to leave it in there as I don't think the parents would eat it and I keep them well fed anyways. That would save me the trouble of setting up another tank.
