I took a few new pictures of my pair tonight. I'm getting ready for a herp show so I don't have time to upload them all, but I'll try to put more on here soon. They look amazing in person, and I'm anxious to see how they develop as they grow up.

I guess you guys should ask Jason (Haygood) if there's any chance of giant genetics. I was talking to him about the growth rates of his geckos not too long ago and he does have some big ones. My pair was born in mid-late February and weigh 22 and 24 grams now. Interesting that you mentioned the tails Paul-I noticed the male has a longer tapering tail tip than the female, but I thought it was just a minor individual difference. I hadn't even considered that they could be giants, but since they're Trempers I guess anything's possible. I would assume they aren't or Jason would've noticed, but hopefully he'll chime in on the matter. Thanks for the comments, and yes they were named after Seinfeld characters. :)

Nice pictures, Kevin. I love the names.
I'm not breeding specifically for the "Giant" trait in any of my projects. I love big leos, but I love small ones too, so It's just not a project that I've really focused on. However, the two that Kevin got from me do have pretty big parents. The male is just shy of 100 grams now, and he's not quite a year old yet. The female was 90 grams at the time she was first introduced to a male. She was about 8 months old at the time. She lost some weight during breeding, so it will be interesting to see how big she gets now that she's done.
