Update on my babies

Ok I've got four and two more on the way later this month. They've changed so much, and with all the crestie talk, I just had to share!! :D

My first hatchling... now around 1 and a half months.

This little one is from the second clutch and just shy of a month.

they are all so cute! i love the spots on the first one though--looks like you may have a super dalmation on your hands there. :D :gj:

Great piccies! I love the dark one! :D

so - freaking - cute....:D

DIES!!!!!!! They are too freaking adorable! I'm more excited than ever now about getting one (or two! LOL)

Emily will not rest until we all join the Dark Side..."It is useless to resist."

So, BP.netters, it's not a question of "if" you'll get a crestie...but when. Accept this now and it'll be easier on us all.../nod

Sooooo Cass...when are YOU joining the Dark Side? :P

Christie, they are aDORable!!! I absolutely love that first picture with him looking at his reflection! There's an HOTM if I ever saw one!

Oh how adorable. I must learn how to properly photograph cresties! Is it better to go with a flash or no flash to get their colors true? How in the world do you ever keep them still. Sprocket boings around but maybe will settle down as we did just get the little fellow but it was a challenge to just get a couple of clear shots of him.

Beautiful babies Christie! So sweet!

photographing cresteds is a challenge, that's for sure! if you have a nice bright light on nearby you can try not using the flash to try to get better color. one thing i do to take photos is to place the gecko in a rubbermaid dishpan. since it has sides it seems to keep them from immediately taking off in 10 different directions while you are trying to snap a pic.

mwaahaahaaaa! slowly but surely they all join... :devilish:

Yep I resisted for well over a year but even I finally went over to the "other side" LOL. How sad is it that all the way to the Taylor show I was whispering to my 5 year old..."mommy wants a crestie, don't forget to tell your daddy, mommy wants a nice crestie for her birthday". You know you've got it bad when you are feeding the youngest kid lines to tell his own father so you get your "surprise" birthday crestie LOL.

Mikey knows which side of the bread it's buttered...=D

I can't have any more herps until we have room for them...but then...RAWR!

Thanks everyone. :D That first one is my first hatchling and my FAV!!! Of course, I'm a sucker for those dalmation spots. :love:

Judy, I just happened to catch the mirror shot because the little guy flung himself/herself over there. I noticed how cute it looked and thought ... HEY quick take a picture dummy!! :rolleyes:

Way to go Jo! My son told my husband (uncoached!!!) that he wanted to get me more bps and cresties for my birthday. Unfortunately it was a no go, but I was soooo proud of him. :gj:

Well funny enough Mike said he had no interest at all in cresties....yeah sure...everytime I get little Sprocket out guess who is running over wanting to hold him and let him run up his arm LOL. Mike actually brought up the idea of more cresties before I did.

We very carefully let Sprocket jump to Mikey's hand today. Wish I'd had the camera handy, the look of wonderment on our 5 year old son's face was priceless! He keeps calling him "rocket" though LOL.

My kids LOVE the cresties. They're my daughter's favorite. When I took them into the kids schools, everyone wanted them to jump onto them.

Wow, more cresties? You may need a bigger house sooner rather than later. ;)

She's being humble, Christie has ALWAYS taken good pics! I try snapping the same picture at the same time and her composition and whatever else photographer stuff always looks better....it's disgusting!! ;) :D

Oh well, I resign myself to my sad little pictures without access to her talents...many miles away...:(

I love you!! (EVEN IF I DID HAVE ANOTHER ADORABLE BABY HATCH LAST NIGHT!!!! :hijackd:
