Updates on Titan...weight is back on!!

[astronut1885]

Hey guys. Some of you may remember my 1st post here about two months ago where I introduced my geckos, including my Giant Hypo male Titan. I had just taken him from my dad who wasn't exactly practicing good gecko husbandry to say the least. He was lanky, missing all kinds of toes, and just not looking his best. Well, after some TLC and lots to eat, I present the properly filled out Titan. I'm including a before pic for those who might not have seen it. Scale is fried, so I don't have a weight, but suffice to say he feels like a baseball in my hand. Also, the bump on the side of his head was checked and incised by a vet. He said it was benign and basically said to leave it alone. It seems to be getting smaller with time... Now I wish I just knew his genetic background. He was a pet store buy a few years ago.

Everyone else from my original post is more or less the same with some added weight except for Smoothie, she's growing like a weed, but her proportions don't really look different on the camera. She's got a great carrothead pattern coming in though. She's more than doubled in length and is now 2nd only to Titan.

Congrats on your success. He looks great!

He almost gained a bit more right after the pics were taken. He suddenly got tired of posing and decided to try and take my finger off. Luckily I saw it coming and he missed. He's still a bit bipolar, but he's getting there as far as being sociable. He used to be totally untouchable.

He looks great, Rob! Wonderful job with him! He's got quite nice coloring and CT for a petstore pickup! Nice boy!

I don't even know if I can call it CT, because it's not orange like my SHTCTB's tail. It's almost golden yellow, like his body. I haven't seen that before in a gecko.
