    Unhappy Gecko Keepers Beware?

    If you are keeping and breeding geckos of any type, beware. joe capone has been buying up large numbers of geckos. who is joe capone? 1/2 of morph king reptiles. figure it out yourself. :eek:

    You might want to read his post on the BOI.

    Re: Gecko Keepers Beware?

    Sounds like the other guy screwed him. I know theres a lot of people who don't like him for what he did but theres a simple solution. Don't buy from him. If he can get organized and start a serious breeding program with some rare geckos then he'l be doing more good than have all those geckos spread out among hobbyist.

    Why would you say that? I would like to know the reasoning.

    Re: Gecko Keepers Beware?

    I believe he could keep bloodlines fresher by not having breed offspring back to the parent because they don't have any others to breed with. If you have 20 geckos from 5 different sources you can breed back offspring to other lines in your collections for a while before you run into any problems. Plus a commercial breeder will most likely have better facilities and be able to fine tune their breeding techniques easier and maximize potential. This is just my opinion.

    Smile Re: Gecko Keepers Beware?

    Morph king reptiles only motivation is money, plain and simple. joe capone is the most obnoxious, most greedy little man I have ever seen. he has severly damaged the ball python market and is now going after the gecko world.

    after reading his replys to people on the boi tonite I really believe he is mentally unstable.

    These are my opinions, make up your own mind on this.

    Re: Gecko Keepers Beware?

    Where are you guys getting your information. Link?
    A weird thought past through my mind.
    Just thinking if the Police Raided my home, they'd see a 14ft retic slithering around, a large redtailboa, a large Ball python who acts like a lap cat, and a corn snake who thinks he can make a nest out of my hair... and if they went inside my garage and checked inside my freezer... they'd find dead bodies.

    Re: Gecko Keepers Beware?

    I say I don't care...

    Joe has been a great guy to me and no matter what anyone says, without question I'm buying from him one day.

    Sapphire~ I talked to him on the phone last Sunday. He told me himself the species of gecko he's buying.
