Took me long enough, but I finally got some geckos again and I made sure to start my comeback with a bang. I just had 1.3 shipped to me today, most of which came from Ray at Designer Geckos but the male is from Dayton Gecko. I'll start with him since he was the first to arrive (excuse the pictures-just wanted some quick ones before I let them settle in):

There are so many things I like about this guy. He's kept a lot of his lavender coloration, he has a cool head pattern, he's very mellow and easy to handle, and just his structure in general-he has such a wide head that he just looks like a male even from a distance. I also thought it was cool that the color creeping on his tailbase is yellow instead of the typical orange. Apparently he's not from any of the big name bloodlines in bold leos, so I like the added genetic diversity I should get from him as well.

This is my personal favorite of the girls Ray sent:

This girl's awfully nice too though:

Finally, the oddball (a possible super giant):

The girls are all big considering how young they are. The albino is a little over 60 grams at about 5 months old, but the other two are in the upper 50s and a month older. I'm hoping for some big healthy babies from this group, but I'll give the females more time to mature before I introduce them.

Thanks, I'm very happy to have them. I've always been a fan of bold stripes, but never actually saw a nice one in person before I got these. I can't wait to see their kids and I expect I'll hold quite a few back.

Glad you are happy Kevin. Welcome to the fold here...the folks here are great and will help you on your new journey into geckodom.

That Jungle Bandit has great head markings and a perfect mask...shoulda been a holdback. She'll produce nice Bandits for you. And you know how badly I wanted to breed that SG to my Hot Moose SG....she will be awesome as she grows and her colors come in more and more.

Thanks, and best of luck to you and the new kids on the block.
