My new male Crestie

[Kristy]

Some of you may recognize him. Diana (Rapture) very generously gave him to me. I know she is dieing for pics.

Oh and sorry for the candy inserts, my husband happened to be there while I was attempting to take pics. He is probably the biggest candy junkie I have ever met in my life lol. So he insisted on having Nerds in the pic.

Here he is..





I could not for the life of me get him to fire up. He was cooperative for the pics though.

Thanks for looking,
Kristy

How do you make a crestie 'fire-up'?
Nice btw!!!

[ADEE]

great pics!! i actually love that there are nerds in it lol. great job

[Rapture]

Look at that happy boy!

[Kristy]

Thanks guys.

To get them to fire up you can mist them. Usually it will work. I tried keeping him busy and letting him climb around. Didn't work.

He is a happy boy. He is probably the clamest crestie I have. He is jumpy at first like you said, but he has started climbing right up onto my hand. My husband held him for a while, he really isn't into the reptiles so that was neat.

it's a halloween crestie! mmm, candy and orange cresties--2 of my favorite things.

[Kristy]

Lol thats what my husband said. Halloween Crestie.

Hey Emily, any chance you would know how old this guy is? I like to keep records for each animal and I was just wondering. If not no big deal

Thank you

he hatched on 7-21-2006. his parents are bisket and julius.

[Kristy]

Thanks Emily. His parents are gorgeous. I was showing Shaun some of your geckos on your site earlier. We were both really impressed with Chai and I love Meela.

[mlededee]

thanks! chai is with mocha at the moment (and boy are they vocal!), but i am going to switch her up soon with a male holdback from last year that has her dark background and orange (although not quite as intense) dorsal color. one day i'd like to make a gecko that looks just like chai but with full, cream colored pinstripes. meela will soon be introduced to finnigan.
