these are the only 3 that came out.. kinda hard to get good pics when they are so tiny! Hopefully when it calms down a bit, I can get some better shots, for now I just want it to continue settling in..
Hope you enjoyed them!

Congrats on the new addition! Nice little one!

Might want to be careful and not handle it till it gets bigger. Pictus geckos are very fragile. Even sub-adults are fragile. Watch it, because it might jump. When I sit down with mine, they will jump from my hand to my chest. Also, they will try to go down, and hang from their back legs and tail and can/will fall most of the time. Just a thought to keep your little one safe! Good luck!

thanks Chris, but I only took him out to shoot these 3 pics, and he was over a screen top so if he fell he wouldn't hurt himself. he has been in his enclosure since, and is eating well, imist him because i read that babies won't always drink from a dish.. and he is pooping well also. He is actually really calm surprisingly.. I expected him to be way more skittish than he is so far... any other tips?

I love those guys :)

He's got nice clear banding too.
Another tip about pictus???? How about.. watch it, they're every bit as addicting as leos and fat-tails.
