Actually it has more to do with genetics than anything. The general rule of thumb is 10 inches and over, and 100 grams and over, but there are geckos that do not carry the giant "gene" and they meet these requirements... but you need the giant "gene" in one or both of the parents to make a giant.

it does have to do with genetics. the animal does have to have the giant gene and if it does there are apparently certain "guidelines" :rolleyes: as to what constitutes a giant and super giant etc., like age weight and length
