two buns in the oven

i picked up an adult pair of cresteds a few days ago and the female arrived with two eggs in her belly. now i'm extra glad i got her! kinda like a 3 for 1 special.

Rock on! I recognize Gidget. Congrats on a great find with that one. Did Mocha come from the same source?

[mlededee]

yes, mocha came from the same source. i have to get some pics of him fired up--he turns almost black with bright creamy yellow and light orange harlequin patterning. i have to say i got quite a great deal on the two of them thanks to your advice on gidget. he/she is just the cutest thing that has ever entered my herp room. he sits on my finger and eats cgd out of a spoon for me every night.

That's great that Gidget is so handleable right from the word go. Camo has been one to want to come out of her enclosure every time it is opened, but not necessarily to come to whoever opened it. I'll look forward to Mocha's later pics.

congrats on the buy! eggs is a real bonus! gigdet looks awesome who did you get it from? vosjoli told me that he thinks the pinstripe trait is "like co-dom" i hope to find out this season.

i got gidget from a random guy named bruce who advertised him/her and mocha on kingsnake. the price on gidget was pretty sweet and so i made him an offer on the two together and got a very nice deal. i think they may be 2 of the nicest geckos in my collection so far. i had them delivered to my husband's office because he is able to accept packages there--he called me when he opened the box and said, "these look really nice. i don't even want to know what you paid for them." and i said, "actually you do cuz it was gooood!"

that makes it even better when you get a real deal on an awesome animal! i got one of my breeder males a few years ago at a show and an awesome deal too! feels good don't it!

do you know what male she was bred to? Just wondering....you might have a nice suprise in those eggs

[mlededee]

it feels veeery good! i have no idea what male she was bred to. could be the male i bought with her, could be a different one. i was going to e-mail the guy i got them from and ask, but i decided it would be fun to have it be a total surprise.

[mlededee]

i've got an egg! the new female (cookie) has been in her lay box all night. i can see one egg in there now but she isn't looking like she's gonna come out any time just yet so there might be another in there i can't see or one still on the way. yeeeeah!
