So, I moved Reckoner and Piper into adult sized bins today.
I snapped some shots of them checking out their new enclosures.
Piper got a plastic cave for a warm hide, and Reckoner got the coconut hide because she likes to tear her enclosure up when she sheds by trying to rub herself all over EVERYTHING. So, I figured the coconut hide is rougher and will help her with shedding.


Pretty Piper:

"Wut iz this?"

She apparently was not impressed and went back to her old hide.

"Iz much safer in here."

Reckoner was far more interested in her new enclosure. She's definitely my curious gecko.

She has to put herself in EVERYTHING.

Aww. They're getting really big. =D Pretty little leos. <3

Thank you, Allee!
I'm hoping they'll make me some pretty babies next year.
ESPECIALLY since Kristi just informed me I can borrow her male blood hypo next season that she just got from JMG for Reckoner.
WOW, I cannot WAIT to see those babies!
EEEEK! I'm SOOOOO excited for next season!


Piper and Reckoner are lookin' GREAT, Rebecca! :main_yes:

Thank you, Maurice!
This means a lot coming from you. I like it that you think they look great so that you know Piper went to a home that's going to do as best by her as possible.:main_yes:
Look at how FAT Piper's tail is in that last shot!!! WOW! That girl has BACK!:main_laugh:
She weighs exactly 30 grams as of today. So, I might be giving her 3 roaches at night to see if she eats them all.


Those are amazing shots! And the geckos for sure too!

Thank you, Jorge! I keep saying if you buy me a plane ticket I'll come there and snap some shots of your geckos for you.:main_laugh:


Wow they look really nice. Some good looking colors going on over there.

Thank you, Travis!:D
The reverse stripe (Piper) came from Maurice at Sunrise Reptile, and the Tang Enigma (Reckoner) came from Kristi at Ghoulish Geckos.
Both breeders produce SUPERB geckos.:main_yes:
I couldn't be happier with both girls.:D

Thank you, Kristi!
See?
I am trying to give Reckoner the best I can.:D

I tell you what, NONE of my other geckos get roaches every single night like Reckoner and Piper do.
They are really spoiled.:main_laugh:

There's nothing wrong with spoiling them.:) I grew up super spoiled and turned out just fine.;)

awww.
I had one grandmother that spoiled me, but I didn't see her often.
She was my Scottish nana, and she was actually my great-grandmother (my grandmother was also Scottish but she passed before I was born), and anytime she visited, I got what I wanted.
And, like, real Scottish people do not part easily with their money.:main_laugh:

hahahaha..."real" Scottish people.

Wow beautiful geckos, very bright and have some nice patterns on them. They look like they are super happy about their homes.

Thank you Josiah, Fikken, and Jenn!!

Josiah,
I shoot with a Nikon D300, 60mm f2.8 macro AF-S lens, and an Sb600 flash unit with a lumiquest soft box attached to it with the flash head bounced of the ceiling for 90% of my shots (the only shots I face the flash AT the gecko is some of the ones of Reckoner so that I can capture her enigma eye).

Thanks, guys!:main_yes:
