Bell Project

[justindh1]

So I just snapped a few pictures of one out of two hold backs from this project. This is the first offspring from this project. Just a tangerine striped bell project. This one is turning out better and better after every shed. It's running about 30-35 grams at the moment. This gecko was looking female all the way up to 25 grams but has started to mess with my eyes now. After looking at it so long I believe I need a fresh set of eyes to determine the sex. It may be a late bloomer and turning out male but not sure. I would love for it to be male as that's what I want. Let me know what you think, male or female? Thanks for the help!

Here is the female (pre-shed) that will be used to outcross and hopefully enhance the orange and dorsal stripe.

Very nice! I do love that Tang female you have. It looks like your questionable gecko is female.

Thanks Kelli! The female tang is one that someone I know picked up with 5 other geckos. I talked him into selling me her before it even arrived at his door. I really haven't seen any like her since. I am excited to see what comes from her when bred to my jungle bell from this year, if he gets big enough in time. If not, then I have a nice eclipse that I will put her with. I may have to find her a nice tang male for the year after that has some bold spots.

So you're focusing on a dorsal stripe sort of tang bell? Cool!

Nice project
Wow only 30-35g? Looks more like 45-50g. Nice chubby gecko

I guess it would be a stripe and dorsal stripe tangerine bell. We will see what happens. I figure that it is better to have a few line breeding projects and a goal to try to accomplish if I am going to continue to breed. Something to add to the fun and enjoyment I get from seeing something pop out of an egg.
