Gecko and Small Lizard Husbandry Course with Danny Brown

 

In conjunction with world-renowned gecko expert, Danny Brown, ERD is proud to present the first Gecko and Small Lizard Husbandry Course. Covering absolutely everything Danny has learnt over his last 25 years of keeping reptiles, this course is a must for anybody with an interest in geckos and small lizards.

For those unfamiliar with who Danny is, check out his website at www.geckodan.com. Not only does he keep Australias biggest lizard collection, he is also an avid author, bird keeper, fulltime veterinarian, botanist, husband and father!

The course will cover all aspects of keeping small lizards in captivity, such as housing, raising, sexing, breeding, incubation, feeding and general maintenance. The course will concentrate on the following genera -

Nephrurus (Knob Tailed Geckos)
Underwoodisaurus
(Barking Geckos)                                               
Oedura
(Velvet Geckos)
Strophurus
(Spiny Tailed, Striped and Jewelled Geckos)
Diplodactylus
(Small Terrestrial Geckos)
Cyrtodactylus (Ring Tailed Geckos)
Salturius
(Leaf Tailed Geckos)
Gehyra
(Dtella Geckos)

Delma
(Legless Lizards)
Lialis
(Burtons Legless Lizards)
Pygopus
(Flap Footed Lizards)

Carlia
(Rainbow Skinks)
Ctenotus
(Striped Skinks)
Egernia
(Large Skinks)
Eremiascincus
(Sandswimmers)
Eulamprus
(Water Skinks)

Ctenophurus
(Netted Dragons)
Hypsiluris
(Rainforest Dragons)
Tympanocryptis
(Earless Dragons)
Pogona
(Bearded Dragons)

And various small Varanus (Monitor Lizards)

The course will feature complete enclosure set ups, live animals, hundreds of photographs and of course, the unmatchable knowledge and expertise of Danny Brown.

It is a full day, starting at 9.00am and finishing at 5.30pm at the latest. We suggest you don't make any plans that evening as we'll be pushing for time! It's going to be a pretty intense day, but we always run our courses casually, with lots of questions, stories and laughs throughout. Danny has put together an amazing PowerPoint presentation to compliment his seminar.

The course is limited to 20 people, and we expect that it will fill very quickly. For interstate travellers, we can organise accommodation. The course will be fully catered for.
