was surfing the web, lookin around at some different lizards... i came across this image and was just curious.. what are your odds for getting a leaf gecko to have this produced result? i think this is just an amazing look! so does anyone know, or own these bizarre stunning beauties that could maybe shed some light on the subject

I have seen them for sale off an on, on Fauna. Do a Google search for "Satanic leaf gecko for sale." I'm honestly not too sure of the care requirements, but they are pricey. I remember them going for $300-500.

eh not worried bout price, i am jus browsing through pics and seeing these insanely awesome colored and just badass lookin creatures so they have my attention, naturally i will run through many care sheets and etc... but i was more or less curious about how the colors would go, and how i would be able to find out if i purchased at least 2, the odds of having an insane outcome like the pics above

Those are natural colours for those geckos. They come in deep reds and browns and blacks. Now finding a healthy one and getting it to acclimate is an entirely different story. The uroplatus geckos aren't kept often and bred even less. Wicked group of geckos though. I wish I kept them about 10 years ago when they used to be around. My favourite are the fimbriatus.
