phyllurus platurus

Hi everyone, I have a "man-cave" at home that also appears to be the residence of several species of reptile. I have seen plenty of Skinks, and also what I believe to be Broad-Tailed Geckos. There is also plenty of poop around. It's on the walls and also the floor. I have attached pics of...

Hi guys, I was wondering what species this is? I know next to nothing about geckos so sorry if it is a stupid question. Thanks, Tyler

After recently receiving a new asper and taking the usual photos I have found what appears to be mites around the top of the eyes, what treatments are there to deal with mites around the eyes as most information is on snakes. I will post a picture up in the next day or so (hopefully) but in the...

I spent the last couple nights doing a bit of frogging in my local area, haven't found much it's been quite dry and no real reptile activity on the road yet. Thought I would post some pictures of the frogs that have started calling. A nice male Litoria phyllocroa sitting on a branch, these...

Here you go Sam... I know you love these things and this was just "hanging out". Also, my new male Pseudothecadactylus lindneri.

I'm looking at getting a pair of geckos soon and was considering a pair of leaf tails. Can anyone who keeps them shed some light as to what they're like to care for? What are their requirements, etc. Also, who breeds them and approx what a hatchling pair would set me back? Cheers:)

Well over the past few months I've been doing a fair bit of herping over lots of NSW and taken a fair few photos. I thought I'd culminate it all into one thread as it makes it a nice larger thread. Lots of the stuff I saw I didn't photograph being time sensitive and it being stuff I had seen or...

Well while you haven't seen a hundred threads, that doesn't mean I haven't been out frantically herping every night since my last thread. I've finally gotten some pictures of some snakes and a dodgy shot of a leaftail which I promised myself I would get before making this thread. So here we go...

I've not seen any yet and don't know if there is a population of geckos in my area. I hold out hope that I'm only not seeing them because they are very shy and make themselves scarce as soon as I open either the front or back doors to go outside. Would love to have some geckos hanging about...

After complaining on every threat of someone herping and actually finding stuff, i can now saw i have too. But this week end i wasn't even trying. On Saturday mum called me to tell me there were 3 green tree snakes curled up in a tree (i think they were mating) at the netball courts and they...
