Well, thanks to everybody that came over here to look at some of my personal favorite species of reptile and amphibian to make it into captivity :) Of course this list is finite, and the species of incredible cold blooded creatures is nearly endless, I will continue to update this blog with new and exciting species! This week is the Sphaerodactylus nigropunctatus! A relatively small gecko, occasionally referred to as 'microgecko' is found in tropical islands such as the Bahamas, Cuba, Puerto Rico, and some other very small remote islands in the Caribbean sea. I really enjoy this gecko for obvious reasons. Straight up, their patterns are just ridiculous, and the sexual dimorphism exhibited truly ads to their appeal. These geckos are known to be mainly terrestrial residing in the leaf litter on the tropical forest floor. Being crepuscular, they are most active during dusk and at dawn. They feed on very small insects and in captivity will do fine on pinhead crickets and fruit fly's. Without further ad`oue~ I present to you.......The Black Spotted Least Gecko :D Special thanks to Jason Pierce for taking and letting me use this photo for the blog!
