Who keeps Leachianus?

[EverEvolvingExotics]

I found this website: http://www.leachianus.com/

It still doesn't go into the differences of the localities beside them beside the GT species is larger. Here's how they broke up the Grande Terre to the Offshore.

•R. leachianus leachianus (Grande Terre): Poindimie, Mount Koghis, Yate, Mount Humboldt and Riviere Bleue
•R. leachianus henkeli (Offshore): Isle of Pines, Menore, Bayonnaise, Moro, Duu Ana, Nuu Ana, Nuu Ami, Koe, Brosse, Caanawa

Most young babies of mixed locales/henkeli are about $300 at that size (bought him at 5 grams)..I'm pretty sure. That's what I paid. As far as mixed locales, I think if you're looking to breed, you should probably focus on pure ones..I just wanted to own one of the species as a pet, so it didn't matter. I'm not sure how it affects the color though.

This page shows a good difference in color/pattern! http://leapinleachies.com/pages/rhac-gallery.htm

Yeah, at first I would just want one as a pet. I have enough breeding plans between my crested geckos and ball pythons. Thanks for the link. I will also make a post over at pangea, hopefully someone can explain it for me.

These are my Nuu Anas, Freya and Cobb. Cobb has a little more growing to do to catch up and be paired with Freya. He's getting there though
They were only put together for a quick pic.

so few individuals were collected from any of the locales that, actually, crossing them out is going to be the only way we will be able to sustain the population in captivity.

That said, if you're interested in rhac species, I highly recommend the book "Rhacodactylus: The Complete guide to their selection and blahblahblahlong_title", I think that Fast, Repashy, and de Vosjoli are all authors.

I know that Vosjoli has a variety of locales he produces and sells regularly, and if I'm not mistaken, Frank Fast is involved with leapin' leachies.

Before I actually decide to jump into leachies, I'm going to go spend some time over at the repashy.com forums, I think that's the only 'leachie heavy' forum.

Yeah...I have seen a few "used" ones for practically the cover price at best on amazon and ebay/half.com. I spoke with Phillipe last year because he was going to release all the Rhacs in seperate books. He said that economy hit and it wasn't the right time to publish and that they are using this time to collect even more information. He said that they will come out, but could not estimate a date.

Regardless if he released the new editions now...I'd definately get one

I've been wanting that book for over a year now. I have spent $60 on a used Dave and Tracy's ball python book but $100 is hard for me to do. I really want it. I have spent some time of the repashy forums but have yet to make a profile. I think I should, soon.

Severa, those are some nice fat leachies!

This is some great information. I think anyone into Rhacs would love to see this happen. I looked on Amazon last night and a new book was $190 and a used one was $120.
