Gene being Gene.

Made a larger hide, lower his stand and added a flatter surface so gene has added space to sleep. Looks cluttered but he has a lot of floor space and the stand doubles as a second hide since it's darker.

Loving the black and white photos

We have two cameras and I've set mine to black and white permanently
Great for old cars / cottages / houses and landscapes

Hahah nice! Glad someone's bigger tic likes it. Phyllis hasn't touched hers, but Gerald basically lives in his. He shed last night. Pics once I get home later

Beautiful


Been busy off my butt these days. Not a lot of computer time.

He looks smoking.

Update, Gene sleeps in his skyhide at night and sleeps on the floor during the day. Best investment ever!

Hey Stearns! Gene is looking phenomenal as always. I had a question for you though - so I was looking at a 50% SD Kalatoa Platinum Retic (around 10 months old i believe), and the breeder sent pics and the colors discouraged me. I'm not too familiar with the platinum gene (no pun intended ), and I'm wondering if your Gene has ever gotten as dull or dark as this little guy when deep in shed. I've seen how gorgeous Gene and some other platinum are, and I want to make sure it's normal for that morph before I end up with an ugly duckling. Thanks in advance!

From what I've seen in other folk's platinums they seem to color up as they age. Can't speak from personal observations but that's what I've gathered from talking with people.

Looks like a platinum to me. Gene has gotten lighter as he's aged, but not much. The first picture was him around a year old deep in shed the day I brought him home. Previous owner didn't keep up on husbandry so he soaked for 2 full days. And the last picture was today. Deep in shed and miserable.
