Glad everything worked out for you Chris, that's a really crappy situation. My guess is mom saw this $75 charge on their account and flipped out. I know I would have, "you bought a what? A leopard? NO WAY! It'll eat your face!!!" :main_lipsrsealed:
that's pretty cool, I'd keep that hide consistently moist every day instead of just when you think he's going to shed, it'll aide in the process just by softening up the skin, preparing it for the shed. toss the calci sand in the cracks of the rocks, if you want to use something like that you...
yeah I like the idea myself... I'd love to do that with mine... I don't have the facility or space to breed at this point since I live in an apt, but I'd love to breed mine with a super giant, and just keep the super baby or 2 and in the future maybe breed.
Has anyone thought about doing a breeder co-op? With so many struggling to keep their breeding going, and so many interested in getting into it, I just thought it may make financial sense for 2 or more breeders to work together in developing a breeder co-operative to share some of the expenses...
My 2 girls are literally sisters from the same hatch, I've never had problems with them not getting along, in spite of the fact that the one girl is a 75g giant and the other is probably 54g. As long as you're sure they'd both be females I think you SHOULD be fine in most cases, but there is...
looks cool, where'd you put the UTH? is that hide that your leo's going into your humid hide? You don't have it on sand there do you? If you do I as well as most of the people in this forum would strongly urge against the sand. If the leo goes to strike at their food they are highly likely to...
OK so tell me if this is right... If I have a Super Giant Sunglow male Het Tremper Patternless Abino and a Giant Normal Stripe Female het RAPTOR I would get something like this:
18.75% Super Giant Sunglow
31.25% Super Giant Normal Stripe
18.75% Giant Sunglow
31.75% Giant Normal...
I get concerned about the Enigma genetics, granted all of the morphs are basically birth defects, I think Enigmas are gorgeous, I'm just concerned about the health of the animals.
Stupid question... I've owned geckos for a while now, but hadn't been too involved in the forum for a while. When I come back it seems everyone has adopted a new slang that I'm unfamiliar with... I don't know if this is a new morph or if I'm just being dumb... what the heck is a "patty"???? The...
They don't make noise or smell? I've never used them... want to but that was one of the things I was afraid of... that and if my gf found out that I was keeping roaches in my room she'd probably never come near me.
Outcrossing is using a non-line bred gecko in your stable of geckos that allows you to keep the succeeding generations from having birth defects due to inbreeding. A lot of breeders go back to a more pure breed of gecko like an Afghanicus...
