breeding giants????

[nevinm]

i figured it would get answered a lil quicker here, and since it is about a spacific morph...well any way, what do all of you's breed your giant females at? i have one female at 51, and one at 54. the third is 45g. so when can i put them with my male?
thanks guys

How old are they? I have seen giants that are 30-40-50 grams in the first 3-4 months of their lives.. I'd wait until they are at least 10-12 months old. Giants usually don't attain their peak size until they are 18-24 months old.

man i feel like an idiot, im kicking my self in the butt for not even thinkingn about that. the bigger one is about 12 months old, she was a really slow grower from some reason, but perfictly healthy. the other 2 are 11 months old

Wow your giants dont grow too quick mine is 2 months old and 24 grams.

 

[nevinm]

yeah, well for some reason outta all my geckos, the 3 of them are the most laziest, and just dont like to eat all that much. so as long as they keep eating, and stay healthy, i dont mind it. the rest of my geckos are all up to breeding size by 7 months old.

oh ya. My giant isnt too lazy, I find its most active in the mornings and not so much at night.

Nevin My female was 92 grams at 11 months old The plain old tremper giant male I had at the show was 89 grams after breeding and just under 12 months of age.

I bought a male PRS that was born in jan hes 62 grams now. I also have one thats 11 months and 89 grams, I also got a RAPTOR that was an unexpected giant when she was 26 grams at 2 months. Actually Ive never seen a "small giant" kinda wierd do you have pics?

Nevin, I hope you didn't take my post wrong. I was just stating the weight I have, not trying to be a ...... For all I know they may be super giants as giant X giant can produce them and supers look the same as giants until they pass the magic weight.

I do have a "giant mack" that is roughly a year old from what I was told and is maybe slightly over 60 grams? I am unsure as to if she's a giant or not.

 

[nevinm]

hahahaha, no paul, i was only joking.

Funny thing is.... I hatched a 2.5 gram hatchling this morning from GTA x GTA and it looks to be giant from body shape. that is tiny!
