    It isn't considered a true green because there is no blue color pigment in the geckos. The color for them is created by a mixture of the yellow and black pigments. And I agree 100% that those cresties do not look like an olive green, but perhaps that just means that they have more black in the mixture than yellow. I am not in any way skepitcal about the color, I'm just trying to let people get a better understanding of how it works since no one seemed to know, and I'm sorry if that's how I came off to you. Trust me, I believe you completely, just trying to educate and be educated. :gj:

    And, hey! If you are worried about selling the babies if you breed, I'll take them off your hands! :D

    these 2 definitely have more black in the mix than the normal olive or green crested. when it comes down to it though, i personally can get over the technicalities (i.e. cresteds don't have green pigment so they aren't really green, etc.) in favor of simple fact of how they actually look. they look green, so i'm calling them green. :)
