So happy. Just got 2 pairs of Ptychozoon Kuhlis ( Flying Geckos ). So Now I can breed them, and can help put a stop of so many wc having to be taken. I now have 2 males and 3 females. To go with my 33 Crested Geckos, and 12 Bearded Dragons.
Captive breeding is the way to go. But you will NOT (unfortunately) stop the importation of wild caughts in the trade. This will only happen when legislation is enacted to ban importation. (As it was in 80's in the United States for wild caught parrots). Too often people are pennywise and pound foolish and buy the freshly imported wild caughts with all the risk involved rather than pay a little more for captive bred animals.
Flying gex are wonderful animals. I had one as a pet about 30 years ago. It kept getting out of the tank and I could NEVER find out how it managed to. Then it would just put itself back into the tank the same way it got out. It got to the point where I would just shake a bag of crickets and when he heard the sound he would scurry down the wall from where ever he was hiding and jump back intot the tank to be fed. LOL. He was a fun gecko.
