Do you have a beautiful big boy, thumbs up. yes you do. Remember the old saying. You get what you pay for. If you went to Ron Tremper or geckosetc.com than theres a solid chance your buying a Super Giant. I think that these days alot of people are throwing the Giant or Super Giant term around to loosely. And if you tell someone that the gecko they have isn't 100% a giant or super giant they get mad or other people on the forums get upset. This is a simple question you asked. Which can not be answered in one sentence. I have heard of rumors of this person and that person having geckos over 200 grams. But where is the proof. I can photoshop also. I like real proof. I feel Ron and the Origal people who help create the Super Giant should sell you a linage certificate. lol. Like a pedigree. From Moose or Godzilla or the other guys who were helping create the Super Giant 30 years ago. hope this helps.

    what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

    First of all name calling are for children. What you wrote was disrespectful. The Super Giant line was produced a little over 10 years ago. By Mr. Tremper. How is any of this dumb. These are facts. Respected breeders will never claim they have a Giant or Super Giant unless they have some lineage to the Moose or Moose's lineage. This includes Moose's brother that was slightly longer than him. Moose just weighed more. I have hatched out huge geckos myself. But Out of respect im not going to say they are Super Giants. Do I own Super Giants from the Moose and Godzilla Lineage yes. Have I bred them and created real Super Giants and Giants YES! But insulting someone is just kiddish. I was trying to help someone understand where people go wrong by calling anything a Giant or a Super Giant. By all means any one has the rite to call a grasshopper a Gator. Its there rite. But I was stating facts. And you my friend are just insulting someone. Keep it up, seems like your good at hurting peoples feelings. Just not mines. Many people will read this and see your just a mean spirited person. And hope one day you can stop your childish ways. peace!

    waltah!
    That's a great looking gecko for sure, and certainly quite big. Without the lineage odds are against it being a giant or super, but anything is possible. Either way he's a nice, healthy looking gecko:)

    Btw, let's play nice and keep any insulting Billy Madison movie quotes out of it:gj:
