Anticipated: Pic Thread & Discussion

[JoeRossi]

Thank you

Thank you & Yes, I am finally getting to the point where I can concentrate on specific morphs. I have my Reds, Blondies, Orange, Pin striped, Holloween, Greens, etc...My next step is for the Kamikaze some intense Red marbled in with Pin stripe Orange, Black, Yellow etc....Difficult & a lot of luck LOL

Nice job on that one man!Should be an impressive looking adult.Do you know of any good sources for blonde morphs?

[JoeRossi]

Right here

Sure thing I have a female up on the boards. I will PM you on her, but she is beautiful. Soft Green and Yellow by day and fires up dark and yellow by night.

Oops on the first Picture. That is not her or a Blondie LOL

Fat Gecko Has Sung!: Color Change

I have posted a few of my babies and have been asked will they stay that color? How extreme can the color change be from new born to adult? My answer is it varies, but can truly change coloration to the extreme. I have seen nearly white creams end up fire red, harley brown and orange, greens turn orange flame, etc... However don't just take my word for it. Here is a screen shot from Anthony Caponetto website, http://www.ciliatus.com/content/index.php?option=com_content&task=blogcategory&id=41&Itemid=194

Keep in mind this is all the same gecko and if you check out the link he shows a newborn going from brown to grey to yellow to bright Red. You truly never really know what gem you are going to get until the Fat Gecko Has Sung!

Snapped a few more pics of my cuties.

The boy, Gex-

together-

We finally came up with a name for the girl- Elektra. We introduced the two on wednesday. I hope we'll get some pretty babies from them eventually.

 

[JoeRossi]

Electra

Electric Elektra (Not Electra sorry can't edit the title) will produce some nice yellows. Keep me us 2 date on how the breeding goes. Should be some nice Kin

 

[halfwaynowhere]

any ideas on the offspring from this pairing? I'm particularly fond of the tiger pattern, but don't know what my odds of getting tiger babies are.

 

[JoeRossi]

Odds

Well as you know you often never know what your going to get. However, More then likely the dark from the blondie will dominate so you will probably be prone to get more blondies and some flame/tiger patterns are there so there is a good chance you will get some. The safest bet is you will get some yellow LOL:razz:

 

[JoeRossi]

Nice Whites

I have been meening to post this since there was some question on Moonglow or solid white Geckos. The pictures are from Amanda Kiser @ http://www.crestedjunkie.com/ . Currently Amanda said she is working on breeding all whites & still sifting through the generation of whites to come up with a truly all white, but no babies yet, maybe this summer. Yummy I want one

 

[halfwaynowhere]

ooh. thats amazing. I want one!

 

[syndicate]

Those moonglow's are def nice.The woman I got my male crested from told me she came up with that term.I think she may have used it first in a book she wrote or something I cant remember.Got to see a couple of them in person at the show tho.Nice geckos!
-Chris

 

[JoeRossi]

Snow, Ivory, Moonglow, etc...

Yes, many different names are used for the Geckos just Like T's for Common Names. Do we have one yet for Encyocratella Olivacea "Orange Quest" lol
Although, I know you piss many people off a lot more in T's by not calling them by their exact specific common name. Either way Snow, Ivory, Moonglow, what ever you want to call it does not truly exist yet as we spoke of earlier in this thread. All of the white geckos thus far have other coloration either fired or unfired, but I am sure it is just a matter of time. Definitely a rewarding project for those interested though.

 

[JoeRossi]

Halfway....

Sorry, just saw your post missed it earlier & I think we would all like some Snow White beauties....make them now....make them......

One Of My Favorite Crested Gecko Pictures Ever.....

I was looking for this picture for quite some time on the web because it describes to me what I ment by the "Kamikaze Gecko" or the perfect micture of several colors displaying a unique pattern. I have spoken with Joe Belmonte @ Eatstern Aboreals http://www.easternarboreals.com/index.html, whom this picture and gecko belongs to and thus far he stated he has not had an offspring like this one. And did not have any intentions of selling him:wall: This is truly an amazing creation in my opinion with the reds, choclates, greenish, yellow, white etc...color tones and my hats off to Belmonte!

 

[Miss Bianca]

You truly never really know what gem you are going to get until the Fat Gecko Has Sung!

LOL!!!!!!!!!!

 

[johnharper]

I never knew there was patternless white cresteds I would love to get some of them someday.

Do any of you use humus as a substrate for your Cresties to make cage cleaning a little easier? If so could you direct me to a link for some sort of substrate mix. I've heared of people doing this, they just stir the fecal matter into the substrate and it breaks down.
