New crestie from wasatch expo

[lefty]

I went to the wasatch reptile expo just to look and be jealous. Told my self not to spend a dime. I had a good plan too, until I held this little guy. My plan fizzled and I now own my first crestie.

Congrats on your new pinstripe!

thank you. so it's a pinstripe huh?? i'm not too familliar with crestie morphs outside of dalmation or harlequin. i've had leos for a long time but like i said, i'm new to cresteds. they have been on my list for a while though. glad i had a chance to pick this one up. so, what makes it a pinstripe and is that a good thing?

Crested Geckos are much different than a lot of other species when it comes to morphs. This topic is a regular discusion on this part of the forum. Look through this link to explain what each morph means.

Some people like pinstripes, others don't. It's all personal preference. I personally love a nice pinstripe and have multiple of them in my small collection.

cool. thanks for the info. since i'm not going to breed but instead keep it as a pet/display animal, i'm not too worried about genetics. i did like the pinstripes in the photos on your link and am quite thrilled with my little lizard. seems like cresties have tons of personality and character. now i just need to determine its gender.....

No problem, this should help you out with sexing. Your's is much too small to sex at this point but here is a great link to show you how when the time comes.

ya, i realize its way too small to sex. i'm sure once its big enough it will be no problem. similar to a leo. thanks again for the links. very informative.
