christinus marmoratus

After another exotic thread being blow out of proportion, i'm after all the license reptile rescuers out there. What are some of the strangest things you've seen, what are some of your best rescues. I'll start every one off, I was called for a big green snake, fairly thick, in Sydney's...

Hey guys, I was given a couple of gecko eggs a whilst back which have hatched very successfully, i was under the impression that they were marbled velvet geckos, but now they have grown slightly i'm doubting it. Not the best photos but the orange dots up the tail and spine are what's...

Hey guys, Just thought id share some pics of my new thickies, moving them into a bigger enclosure tomorrow morning. also id love if anyone could tell me any new lizards i could buy as now im addicted haha. and how to take awesome photos like most members do on here. thanks!

Hey guys... just wondering if anyone out there has any female marbled geckos - (Christinus Marmoratus), would love a couple of girls to go with my boy, who's looking very lonely in his new larger enclosure ;) I'm willing to pay freight, or travel (within reason). PM here or email...

I've had this marbled gecko for nearly three years now, He's had the brightest orange tail and I've noticed he never changes to darker tones like the others do. He also has a different pattern - more like solid lines than fading texture. I just wonder what's up with him, is he a different...

Having drinks out on the balcony last friday night, when this little fella came crashing out of a tree, i live is South Australia

what type of gecko is this the little guy was behind my dressing table

I am starting this thread (and have hopes it kicks off) as I am very interested to see the range of answers to... IF YOU COULD... ONLY.... KEEP ONE SPECIES OF AUSTRALIAN NATIVE REPTILE, WHAT WOULD THAT REPTILE BE? and if it is applicable and you would like to add... WHAT MORPH OR LOCALITY...

Hi everyone I found this gecko in the caravan park I am staying at and was wondering if anyone could ID it. Cheers, Brad

I can't decided!

when i was younger i lived in caulfeild and we used to get a large ammount of what i was pretty sure were marbled geckos but i need some clarification on if they are in that area in large ammounts???

i was olding my snake and then i touched her really fast which made her automatically strike so it was my fault she striked and for some reason im actually happy i got bit by her and she is only a children's python she is a year old so it didn't really hurt. but i want to no when was the first...

today we measured some dimensions for my lizard pit...... tomorrow we are going to buy the materials, because i got in trouble at school :rolleyes: im not allowed to go to tassie, so this is my chrissy present :D its gonna be: 4.5mX1.2m and as high as a peice of colourbond?? for now i can only...

Hey, I live in SA I dont have any type of reptile licence. I have enclosures and lots of equiptment to put them together but have not got any critters to go in them yet. What is the best snake for me to get in your opinion? Im looking for a snake which is small, low maintenance, can be kept...

Following on from the 'my first bite' thread What have you been bitten by, (add any not already listed) Dog Cat Snake Bearded Dragon Possum Horse Rat Ferret Ants Mozzie

G'day, you guys have probably had a million posts like this, but... I recently bought two marbled gecko's (supposedly male and female) and wanted to make sure they ARE male and female, if anyone has any easy solution to my problem it would be much appreciated! If anyone knows any points to...

Usually at least once a week I rescue a skink or dragon from the pool. I thought I'd share the pics because he's such a tiny little guy (I've never rescued or seen such a young dragon before). I sat out in the sun with him for a few minutes, and he was happy enough to sit on my hand on pose for...

well for some time now ive wanted a new herp (dont we all) and i had a snake in mind but parents said a big fat NO, also monitors are too big :rolleyes:, so all i have a hope of getting is geckos and dragon/skinks.. ive been seriously contemplating getting a marbled gecko or a knobby but...

I have a trio of marbled geckos (Christinus marmoratus) that I would like to breed this season. I am pretty certain its 1 male 2 females in the enclosure. They are currently fed on gutloaded small crickets. What I would like to know is :- What should I be feeding them to keep them in the best...

I don't want to seem stingy. But what's the cheapest reptile to maintain and breed? I want to start breeding reptiles, not for money or anything, that's why I don't mind if they're cheap. I just like the idea of bringing more herps into the world. I dunno, it just seems like a good...

So cheap, so common, but so hard to find for sale. What's with that? I did a search on here and it came up with two for sale threads, in the last three or four years or something. But they're only like $35 each and from what I can tell really common in captivity. So why so hard to find?

I messed up in my last thread and there has been some confusion over the type of Marbled Geckos. I want Southern ones, so posting again with scientific name as title. In October I may be after two Marbled Geckos. Must be sexed, one male one female. Doesn't have to have bred. It doesn't matter...

In October I may be after two Marbled Geckos. Must be sexed, one male one female. Doesn't have to have bred. It doesn't matter if they're related. Can be any age from hatchling to three years old. So if you're going to have two for sale in mid-late October, you have eggs that are hatching...

Hey All. I have seen Marbled Geckos available in many pet stores but have been given very conflicting advice on their requirements in captivity. I am thinking of getting some as I love all geckos and have a spare vivarium that has no heating. What do they need in order to thrive? UV lighting...

hey all , finding heaps of these little gecko dudes in my laundry i live in the illawarra and have no idea of local species ? we have had heaps of them come in the house when it rains , poor little dudes just keep on picking them up n putting them back outside lol im thinking they may be an...

Hey, can anyone tell me what type of geckos these are? Btw its tail fell off, but its growing back.

hi guys i am new to this site and was looking around at the reptiles everybody has and have become interested in gekkos and was hoping you guys could answer some of my questions i have (own no replites at all at this point in time) qu.1 how much around how much will it cost ( top to bottom...

hi i live in cowra NSW and there is a gecko that i just keep running in to everywhere i go herping or hiking. It is brown with like darker brown dots on it, not a large gecko just average size and it lives in trees(under bark) and small cracks.it also can climb just woundering if anyone can ID...

Just wanting to see if anyone had some enclosures setup with share heating? I am guessing shared between 2 separate enclosures, housing 2 reptiles. The only way I can think to do this would be enclosures side by side with the heat lamp in the middle and a divider. Any pics would be...

G'day all We are new to the forum, so I will post a meet and greet in the appropriate thread later. We have become the custodians of 2 Geckos. and we need some help/advice on identifying and keeping them. I recently returned from a trip across the Simpson desert and the Flinders Rangers ETC...

Who breeds the central form of marbled velvet geckos in QLD and what licence do you need to keep them.

hey all. lately one of my marbled velvets has been chasing the other around their enclosure. im not sure of any sexes, but the one being chased has big white bulges on either side of its neck. i think i read somewhere that this is a sign of a female. i have three geckos in the enclosure, but...

Hey Guys, Im new to the whole gecko thing and i was just wondering what types of geckos DONT need any heating or lighting, such as the thick tailed gecko, also what types of gecko live/native to the illawarra area. Thanks, Rebecca

after some marbled geckos at a reasonable price, PM me, cheers

G'Day, thought I'd seak all your ultimate wisdom in helping me ID this little sucker. Found in Portland (SW Victoria) today at work. Never seen Gechos down here b4, didnt actually think we got them down here to be honest. Sorry bout the quality, only small about 5cm long - total From a...

Well I have been dying to get out and do some proper Herping but I started on my Nan's Farm. Here is just a few of the reptiles that I have found. I have found Bearded Dragons (babies and adults) and a large range of skinks (Blueys and many un-id'd) . There is also a gecko species that Is very...

I found a Marbled Gecko last month, it wasn't a particularly pretty one and certainly not something I hadn't seen before - I have seen many thousands of them. But I was extremely surprised to find this one where I did, hiding in the wooden locking mechanism of a gate at our place in Kinglake. I...

Hey there! Newbie here. I have been going through as many care sheets/forums and this forums info too on marbled geckos. Mainly, mating, breeding season, how long this particular species is gravid for (that is the correct term, yeah?) and how long it takes the eggs to hatch, but I can't...

Hey there guys. Newbie here. So I apologise if I ask a stupid question (or 10). Just wanted to know what sort of tank setup would be needed for a blind (both eyes are no longer in "working order") Gecko, in regards to eating habits etc? Any other suggestions in regards to care and so on...
