Impressive!

Wow, your male is gorgeous! I'm very excited to get mine up to adult size. Leachies are by far the most impressive gecko I've ever seen. They are big yet those wrinkles give them a kind side. Mine were super small when I got them one was 8 grams the other was 12 grams. They are both now over 50 grams. When they finally decided to start eating dubia roaches is when they started to grow fast.

Thank you! My Humphrey is about 2/3 grown at about 150gm. He won't eat insects though - fruit and CGD only for him - but despite that, he does eat well and he's growing well.

They really are like bearded dragons - in a gecko sort of way, lol. And almost just as big. I was wanting a beardy but I didn't want to have to do the bug thing. When I started looking into the leachies and found they could just eat CGD, I thought this was the way to go. I am soooo glad I did!!! Humphrey is personable and loves to be held. He'll sit on my shoulder for hours at a time and he'll even wear a little harness I fashioned out of a few strips of fleece. Incredible!! I'll have to post a pic of that....

What I can't get over is how SOFT they are. Their wrinkly skin and feet pads feel like rose petals! You truly haven't lived until you've felt those great big gecko-feet padding all over you.....
