A gecko that makes me smile.

[David Loftin]

I know he is only a het raptor.. but.. I look in his tub at least 2 x a day.. He is a cutie! :main_yes:

Can you post a full body picture?

Very nice head shot, he looks very handsome :smitten:

What do you mean by "only het raptor"? He's beautiful!

 

[GECKOFREAK]

David, he is stunning! I see why you are always looking at him:main_yes:

 

[MSMD]

David, he's gorgeous! And it looks like he's smiling back in that first pic!

 

[David Loftin]

Thanks guys.. Hopefully he will be producing some eclipses this year that have his color.

 

[Halley]

I think he could make some really good eclipse, raptor, or anything out there. He is a fantastic gecko.

 

[fallen_angel]

He's absolutely gorgeous, very nice red on the tail!

 

[nwheat]

He's beautiful, David!!

 

[Kristi23]

Beautiful!

We have a SHTCTB that looks a lot like that one and I find myself stopping at his tub constantly. What's not to love about stunningly orange gecko? He's gorgeous!

 

[David Loftin]

Thanks everybody.

He's beautiful. Great eyes! But it was your avatar that made me smile ... Where did you find that sign??? :main_laugh:

When you say "only a het raptor", what did you mean? It's funny how there seems to be a notion 'round here that certain morphs are superior or at least more desirable than others. Is this (partly) true, and if so, what makes a certain genetic strain "better"?

Cheers

He's awesome! Tangerine Patternless Eclipse are so nice... Hopefully you'll pop some out...

Well then we'll have to get one of his babies.

I was being a lil sarcastic about the "only a het raptor". He is actually the project that I am the most excited about this year. When he hatched last year.. an orange gecko with no bands.. I knew I had to keep him and find a couple of girls for him.

And.. That sign is actually not far away from where Tamara and I used to live. It is on the way to an underpass for Bart [light rail] and there is some HUGE grates that you really could fall into very easily. That sign makes me laugh. The sign is going to be my next Tattoo. I figure crazy bicylist guy.. needs a crazy bike tattoo. :main_laugh:

And.. Tangerine Patternless Eclipses... Sound like a good plan. :main_thumbsup:

He just needs to gain like.. another 20 grams.. Then I will feel comfortable breeding him. Because you know.. 55 is not good enough. He needs to grow into his full ham-ness.:main_robin:

He is stunning, David! Can you post some progression pictures of him? I would love to see how much he has changed since he hatched. Good luck with him this season!
