I just found this little guy in my Lygodactylus williamsi setup this evening. I was about to shut the lights off when I spotted it. It's pretty darn tiny, that's for sure. I'm guess it hatched from one of the probably many eggs that the two females hide in the tank where I can't find them. Tomorrow I'll get some fruit flies and put it in it's own tank. I don't think the parents will/can eat it but you never know. Anyways, enjoy the pics!

A reference to show how tiny these eggs really are.

AWWWW, hes so cute VF!!
 
Dude! That is really awesome! Glad to see they're doing well for you man!
 
Thanks guys. I think I might try to keep this baby in with the parents. I don't think they will eat it since I keep them well fed. Also there's not a lot of information on the captive breeding and care of this species. A few types of geckos guard their eggs and offspring. I noticed that the male seems to guard the one visible egg in the top corner of the tank. This baby likes to hang out and bask with the adults so perhaps they will look after it so to speak.

Thanks bro, I'm very stoked about finally hatching one. I'll be even more excited when I finally see it eat some fruit flies.
