Does anyone "stud out" their geckos for breeding?

[justin-branam]

I was just wondering if anyone here lets other gecko owners breed with your geckos. th only adult females i have are a patty and 2 hypo tangs, and thought it would be cool if i could pay someone a stud fee, to let my females breed with their male. Of course i would want to breed with other dominant traits, so i could get some nicer geckos for the next year breeding season. Plus i figure its a good way to avoid inbreeding and to get some diversity.

If anyone has done this, what morphs were involved, and what was the price?

guess i should also ask if anyone in the texas area would be interested in providing me a male?

I know some breeders will do a breeding loan. The price depends on the breeder and the gecko. Some breeders may want a fee others may want some of the offspring that are produced. It helps if you have a good reputation. Some people may not even consider it if they do not know you.
personally I would just buy the male I needed unless I had my eye on a certian male that the breeder just would not part with or I could not aford. then I might try to work out breeding loan with the breeder.
