Rocket: thanks, I'll need it, no, unfortunatly i don't have one lined up from a breeder...YET... i just ain't know anyone in NSW who sells em.

Veredus: i love the golden tails, they look awsome, I'll be ready for that sticky stuff. if i do shows when im old enough im going to show people that. as long as the gecko doesn't get stressed by it.

Can anyone tell me a breeder in NSW of golden tails and how much a full set up is roughly...or was i right

Luke1: Basically everything thats already been said is suffice. I imagine your steering clear of using tubs and what them more as a show piece for your room or something along that line. If thats the case, use the tank you mentioned you have spare and simply make up a mesh lid as ari suggested. That way your only going to be up for lid/mesh materials (<$15), substrate (river sand est. $5/bag), 10.0 UVA/UVB globe($?), and an Es socket (approx. $30). In all less than about $80.

Then 1-2 gecko @ around $150.

Complete Setup and Gex $380.

I'll likely have some available around xmas, and i'm in wollongong. Pm if you are interested.

Hi Luke,
We breed Golden tails and keep ours outside in small enclosures that we made for around $50. The cages can hang from hooks or stand upright. We have them hanging from an awning so they get the morning UV and at night leave a fluoro on so that they can eat their fill on moths. Really tame gecko and all hand feed and don't hide all the time as others do.

Cheers,

Craig

Luke - You should be able to find plenty of breeders in Sydney - however, don't rule out importing if you find the right animal, it is easy as pie...
