Bandit and Tang - A couple of our best of '11

[Designer Geckos]

Here are a couple of our best babies of the season.

Lucky is the first Bandit baby of Zorro and Lynne. Nice little Striped Bandit…even though her parents are non-striped Jungle Bandits. Beautiful markings and nice golden color.

Angel Baby is the first baby produced from our new DG Tangerine line, an offspring of Angel and Jason. She’s one of the brightest orange geckos we’ve seen, so our line should hopefully be pretty nice….more babies coming. Her carrot tail will start to come in in a couple months, and it could be about 70-90% of her tail. Her orange body coloring will continue to spread. (Yes, this picture is what she actually looks like...I even had to tone down the color in this pic a bit because she is too bright. Crazy.) Thanks for the emails about these pairings...these two kids are NFS, sorry.

Fun with geckos…..

She is very beautiful, can you post the other pic with it being brighter, just to see the comparison?

Thanks all. While we're really proud of the way our babies are turning out, I think it's important to give credit where credit is due...

Our Bandit line is from Ron Tremper's...his best of the best. Ron helped us immensely in providing our original breeding stock of Bandits, and we got some amazing Bandits from his breedings. We also have really nice Striped Bandits we are breeding that have amazing bold contrast and very nice clean stripes and markings. Thanks to Ron and Alicia for their help in our Bandit project.

As for our Designer Geckos Tangerines....the females are the best Blood Hypos we could get from Jeff's JMG line. Those females have really nice solid orange color with a ton of CT. The male for the DG group is the best male Tang produced from the original Gecko Genetics line by Jason Haygood....we named this great male after him. Jason is a big boy, 125g and is not a true Giant, just a big boy. He has solid orange coloring with 80% CT, and is a great breeder. The Gecko Genetics line was produced from the best Tangs of Kelli's HISS Electrics, crossed to the TUG Tangerine Tornado line.

Anyway, I thought you might want to know the origin of our lines.

LOVE the Bold!

Absolutely stunning!!! Is it a Tang Bandit?

We were wondering that as well! All our Bandit babies are normally a very bright yellow, as are both of her parents, but this one is very orange, even oranger in person than the pic shows.

It would be great if she maintains this orange color because we have a really orange Tang Jungle Bandit male (Randy) we'd breed her to next year.
