Halfway & Katy

Halfway, "She's nothing spectacular, but all cresties are cute" in my opinion they are all spectacular so great pic. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and I look foward to more when you get the chance.

Katy, Please do let me know especially if you get some Red/Yellow we can swippity swap for future breeding lines.

Eric, just saw your post in between the other pics. Ya, it is going to be tough to give one up but well worth the trade. But if it is spectacular you know I want it back LOL:clap:

Joe, I have another really striking yellow dalmation male that just matured this season, too. He needs a girlfriend. Hopefully I will be able to find him a nice, bright female before this season is over. He's a good looking crestie, but I am biased - he was the first one I ever owned. He's the brother of the female that I have paired with Mango. He has very different markings though.

Here he is, just took these pix, so he isn't fired up:

he has lots of spots.

He likes Calculus!


And I have another cute little female who has not matured yet. She is a decent harley when she is fired up with a nice orange on her back. She'll eventually be paired with Spike and he'll have two similar ladies to frolic with.

Here's the girl. Again, not so sure on her coloring. She gets kind of green looking at times, so maybe olive? and I think she's flame patterned? Still trying to get the hang of this.


She's about 25 grams right now.

Katy, Eric, Halfway

Katy: Nice I like the red Marbled in the yellow. At the time all my females are breeding paired up but I will be on the look out.

Eric: I will never tell what's in them secret recipe LOL: No 100% Vermiculite and a large Fish tank rosk with a hole. I have tried it all and they seem to love climbing through the whole in the rock into the vermicultie, the vermiculite does not dry out to quick, never mold on me, easy to dig in, cleans up easy, and does not yellow spot any of the eggs.

Halfway: Great pics again and I look foward to more. You must be a great photographer I checked oout your picture of the pie ball and apple amongst other in profile, very creative.

Thanks, although my photo skills have greatly declined. I used to be a professional pet photographer, but when I quit that job, I had to give all my equipment back. my little sony point-and-shoot doesn't do any justice...

I know all about that........

I know all about that! I had a video/camera for the longest time and I can be so silly stubborn just using the one one I have had for ever instead of just picking one up. Sometimes when the coloring is just perfect and you think you have the best camera ever it still does not do it justice. I still like your avic pic though, cool imagry. Oh...your little buddy looks olive and yellow blondie harley with some yellow flames on the sides. To me, although some might disagree, a blondie is anything yellow or cream harley with black or olive, but some would argue only black/brown and yellow or cream.

Moonglow

Lots of fireworks very high and it wil glow or you can be an astronaut LOL

For those who do not know what a Moon Glow is: Moonglow is a solid white gecko. Many debate if a true moonglow actually exists, because to be considered a Moonglow the gecko needs to remain white all the time not just turn white when its fired or not fires up.

Obviously the best way would be white to white or try to get the lightest color absence of color to breed. However, as stated many diagree a true White exist.

Some more pics of the girl- I'm starting to think I was just imagining the olive coloration...




after I put her away for an hour or so, I checked on her again, and found her fired up. The flash kind of washes out how dark her sides are.

and without the flash- horrible pic, it doesn't show off the pretty color, but shows how dark she gets.


the cream color along her crests- that's partial pinstriping, right? Its not a very good partial pinstripe, but that's what its called, right?

Halfway - yeah I think I see partial pinstriping. She's a really pretty girl!! I love how dark she gets. I really hope that you are able to get babies from her eventually. Beautiful animal.
