Designer Geckos has acquired and entered into a partnership in the new Black Night project.
The Black Night is the culmination of 15 years of work by Holland reptile breeder Ferry Zuurmond, and we were assisted in obtaining these animals by gecko breeder Roy Sluiter. We were able to receive two solid pure black animals, and will obtain more in the future under our agreement.
Some geckos have shown very slight patterning and deep brown areas, while the best are pure jet black, and it's these that we will be developing to continue to refine this exciting new morph.
The best examples are very pure black with dark grey eyes and light grey ventral side. The morph is intelligent and docile with a very good appetite...desirable traits to be sure.
Here is the first picture I've taken of the geckos...more pics to come. You can see they are indeed very black, but this artistic mirror pic does not show the whole animal. Future pics can be seen at our website where we will show the animals in a more naturalistic view.
Anyway, thanks to Ferry and Roy for their hard work on this project. A huge number of reptile breeders tried to negotiate for this BN agreement, and we are happy that Designer Geckos was chosen to be the one to participate. We look forward to providing these to the gecko community in the future. For now, please be patient as it will still take time to expand the colony.
