I did not get any pictures of my High Yellow girl, Cotten because she is still hiding out in her warm hide.

These guys just arrived today. I didn't attempt to take fabulous shots because I didn't want to stress them out.

Jethro is a Bell male that I got from Malt Geckos (Thank you Mallorie and Matt!).
He's just hiding out, so I only took one of him.
He's BEAUTIFUL.

Now, Joplin, who is an SHTCT is not shy. I think someone needs to tell her that Leos need some downtime and adjustment time after being shipped. Because I think she doesn't know that.:main_laugh:
She's already been wandering around her cage, climbing behind her cool hide, and digging up her paper towel substrate in various places. Silly girl. When I walked in one time, I found her buried under her paper towel near the middle of her cage.
I got her from Darth Gecko (Nate) from Sin City Geckos. She's GORGEOUS.
Thank you, Nate! She's BEAUTIFUL. I love her.

Now...for Crackity Jones. Crackity Jones is my new and first crested gecko.
He also came from Sin City Geckos (Thanks again, Nate!), and he's got to be the cutest thing, EVER.
He hatched on 1/8/09. I loves him.

Oh, there will be plenty of pictures of them as they get adjusted and used to us. And I will get pictures of Miss Cotten, too.

Thank you Mallorie, Matt, and Nate!

Thank you, Heather!

I think that Joplin is going to be the clown of the bunch.:main_laugh:

She's got SO much personality.

But I'm sure the others will be chalked full of personality as soon as they adjust.:D

EEEK! I cannot wait to get those roaches so my babies can eat really well! We're picking up crickets tomorrow for ALL of them (we'll see if they take them, if not, our other geckos will eat them up), just so they can have something other than mealies until the roaches arrive and get gut-loaded.:D

WHAT IS YOUR CAMERA AND LIGHT SOURCE!!! *drools at the cleanness and focus of the shots*

Thank you!

I used my Nikon D300 DSLR and my SB400 external flash. I also have an SB600 flash, but the SB400 is smaller and lighter so it's easier to just slap on in a hurry. I really cannot wait to get better shots of them. I want to zoom in closer to their faces. But I didn't want to freak them out since they made such a long journey to me.


Thanks for the compliments everyone!:D

Thank you everyone!

You all will get sick of me posting a million pictures of them as they grow and entertain me.

Just WAIT until their first feeding time! Oh yes, I'll be there with my camera, snapping away!:main_laugh:

They're gorgeous, Rebecca. =)
Charles and I were considering the bell male from Matt and Mallorie. ^.~
He's such a sweet gecko. Very very pretty too.
Great additions!

Thank you!
He's been hanging out in his humid hide for most of the day. He's got out and wandered around some, but not a ton.:D

He's definitely a gorgeous gecko, for sure!
And when my husband put him in his cage after we unpacked him, he didn't want to let go of my husband's hand.:D
