    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.

    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.

    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.

    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. :salute:

    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.
