I have rheostats, is this what you're talking about? I'm pretty accustomed to finicky temperature regulation and I have a fully set-up reptile room with racks for gecko breeding, so I have supplies upon supplies, as I'm sure anybody in this hobby begins to accumulate quite a hoard after time. I have a bunch of rheostats lying around that I test every six months, and I automatically use one for every tank, since that's always prereq, and it's doubly important in my state's moody climate. :)
I am hearing a lot of great advice re: buying females first. I will definitely wait on a male! I have my eye on a pinstripe female, as I said, but am totally open to options as far as other females. I have no problems waiting until they're a healthy weight and in good condition, and it does give me time to size up stock and select a good male. I've had more than a few BPs of varying morphs offered to me in trades for other animals I've bred and I've mostly turned them down because I didn't know what I was looking at as far as worth, and I know the market has a ton of variability. I'll keep reading and if I'm offered another I'll consider it.
If I had these males, what would you personally pair with them, and why? Price is no object; I can bide my time and wait for the right females to come along.

I know people love to throw Enchi into the lines; why is this, if you don't mind my asking? Is this to increase color or offer better pattern?
