My Happy Geckos

[ebuch]

My three geckos in their new 40B tank, it's been up for a few weeks now, they absolutely love it. I have a patternless male, what I think is a bell female and then a normal female. They get along great, spend loads of time napping, climb all over everything, 4 hides in there for them. One of them, the big one in the corner is for humidity, also going to be a lay hide for when he starts mating. The male especially has gotten a lot brighter since I put him in there and the females are getting more and more energetic and alert. Anyway, that's them.

beautiful geckos! your tank has the same hides that were in my breeder tank a few years back! before i switched to racks anyways, but i have always loved display tanks like this

forgot to add:

your female certainly does appear to be a bell to me, but (in my opinion) your male looks more like a SHTCTB (super hypo tangering carrot tail baldy)... any opinions from others out there? thats just what i see

Thank you so much for your kind words about the family. I thought that he kind of looked like a SHTCTB myself, there is definitely carrot tailing and he is definitely all of those other things, but the thing that separates him is that the end of his tail is purple. And most of the pictures I see of the SHTCTB the tails have spots, look at the gecko in my avatar, he's my 4th gecko, and I always thought he was more SHTCTB because of the speckles on the tail. Where as Watto (above) having no pattern in his tail at all would be considered patternless. I actually have no way of telling because they(the patternless and the bell) were relinquished to the local corporate pet store by a couple who couldn't take care of them anymore and they were offered to me for free, I had to take them, got the 40 breeder on the dollar per gallon special. I suppose that the bell will eventually lay eggs and then I'll be able to tell what's going on in their gene pool. If they're all albino, he's a patternless? Unless he is het some other recessive trait, either way it's going to be fun to see what they produce.
