Introductions! New trio of Crested Geckos

I've recently fallen in love with these little guys and have a beautiful trio that has just arrived. Many MANY thanks to LauraLee at Geckos in Tails and to Kaiden with Black Panther Reptiles for such outstanding geckos! Their service was exceptional and I highly recommend either lovely lady if you are in the market for cresties! Beautiful animals and wonderful personal service!! A++!

Without further ado... This is my gorgous boy from Geckos in Tails. He was formerly "Tesra" but I plan to change his name. I'm still thinking though - suggestions are welcome!! He is a proven male, crowned tricolor harlequin partial pinner with outstanding crests and darn near perfect structure. He is a major stud and only partially fired in this picture. When fully fired, he is dark chocolate with lots of cinnamon and toasted cream.

The 2 females are from Black Panther Reptiles. They both have terrific structure and awesome coloring. First up is Saffron, a lovely dark cinnamon red girl and 99% pinstripe. She has a beautiful creamy dorsal and very clean pattern.

The second female is Chai. She is a golden tiger with a few dalmation spots and very nice brindle pattern. She almost never fires down and is very GOLD in color.

I have one other female coming in the fall from our very own eel588. She is a beautiful black and cream girl, a little smaller/younger than the other 2 girls but every bit as gorgeous. Her name will be Juniper. I can't wait to see what my boy will produce with these babies. I think we'll have some stunning and well-varied kiddos in the next couple of years. It will be exciting. Hope you enjoy the pics and thanks for checking them out! Opinions are much appreciated! Here's a parting shot of Juniper so you can see them all. Thanks!

:gj:Nice pick ups! :gj:

Love cresties of all morphs shapes and sizes :-)

Those are some fantastic looking cresties!! That pin especially is insane. Big congrats, have fun with them! :)

Thanks guys! I am really looking forward to working with them. :gj:

Congrats! :)

I would love to see some more pictures of your pinstripe Saffron. I thought about buying her, but she seems lacking in head structure in the pictures Black Panther Reptiles had. Her color is amazing though. :)

I will try to get some better pics of her once she settles in. I think her structure is better in person. She is lacking a bit in crests, but her head is broader than I thought it would be just from looking at the pics, althought its true that, in a perfect world, it could be a bit better. But her eyes are nice and large and she seems to have good body structure. I am hoping the male will improve on her head and crests in their offspring. Chai, the tiger, is better in both structure and crests. Kai gave me a super deal in taking both of them. Thanks for your comments!! ;)

Lovely geckos! I actually got to handle them for the first time over the weekend and they're cool little buggers, congrats!

I would also try incubating her eggs on the cooler side. They take longer to hatch but it can improve the head structure. :)

Thanks for the tip!! That's good to know.... ;)

I love the first picture of the male. His lattern pattern looks like a crown. Also, that little black and cream girl looks amazing. ;)
