You only got a pair?
At that price I would have been tempted to do 1.2 or 1.3.
They look good.

Thanks!
Yeah, I didnt have the money for a third, plus its only an 18x18x18 they are in.


EDIT I just noticed the pics are horrible quality. I guess its from the bad lighting

I didn't have the money to take advantage of getting any of these
Your enclosure would be fine for 3 or 4 though.
I have my pair in a 12x18x24 and I think i will eventually throw one or two more females in there.

Have you found that the spectrum are more arboreal? Lot's of foliage and branches to the top of the enclosure seems to make them feel more comfortable.

Yea I have found them to be more arboreal and they have lots of brachy plants all over. I have two bouganvilia in there and some barren braches as well and they are always up in the trees. I do see them go to the bottom to hunt, however. The female has also been checking out the bottom as well when she thinks no-one is looking, shes getting very round.

Very arboreal! Mine were rarely on the bottom, even to hunt. They are a lot like the small uroplatus geckos, where they will sit on a branch and wait for something to come along as opposed to walking along the ground. (at least in my short experience with them anyway....)

thanks for sharing your photos.
Actually, I have Spectral Pygmy, too. Unfortunately, my male just died. So I have only 2 females.
Btw, I think Spectral pygmy has different subspecies. because two of my females look so different even though they have some similar features.

I just found my male on the bottom today, wonder what hes looking for....
