New crestie! Pics!

Just got this girl yesterday. These pics just don’t do her justice at all. She glows! Her red is a really nice brick red and he contrast almost looks like she’s glowing when she’s fired up, seriously! What would you guys classify her as? I’m definately thinking harly, but what color would you say with the contrast? She also has some wierd eyes, it’s actually really cool. One of her eyes are darker than the other as you will see in the pics. She doesn’t seem to have a problem with them either. It doesn’t look like she’s blind in one or anything. Her pupils dilate and everything. You can see how dark her eye is better in the side shot than the head shot, it doesn’t look that dark in the head shot.

Very nice red harlequin. They are pretty expensive, especially for one like that. He looks great.

Weird look on the eye. I can't tell you what that's about, though - but it's weird looking, that's for sure.

Thanks for posting. Very, very nice.

I got her from a local exotic pet store called Animal Dreams for $60! At the store she didn't look anything like that. She was kind of dull colored, I couldn't believe how nice she was when I saw her the next morning.

Oh, also she is about 2 3/4 SVL and around 28 grams give or take 1 or 2. How old would you say she is? When I got her home from the store she was 26 grams and when I weighed her last night she was 30 grams. I'm thinking somewhere around 8 months, what do you guys think?

Yeah - it could even be closer to a year. It will be ready to breed by next season.

In some areas, that's a 250 dollar gecko.

Nicely done.

I just aquired a super dalmation male (I'll post some pics in the next couple of days) from a pet store, and he also has one light eye and one dark eye. Has anyone else seen this before? What causes it?

smith710 Nov 16, 2006 01:53 PM

On a couple other forums people said that they have seen them have the different color eyes after getting into a fight and getting bit in the eye. But the ones that I have seen, the eye that was bit looks bad. I mean, like sunk into their head or just not right, and some say they favor the other eye, like they are blind in the dark eye. Hers look exactly like the other eye, just a different color. It works the same, she acts the same, it dilates, I dunno. Thanks for all the complements. I had no idea she was a red harly when I bought her because she was fairly dull looking. I couldn't believe how nice she looked in the morning. I was so happy, and she is definately my favorite. Can't wait to start breeding her, still gotta wait about 4 months.

Here's the pic of the male I just got to go with her when they are ready. They are both pretty much the same age. He isn't really anything huge, but I wanted a red to go with her and I got a good deal on this guy too, he was only $40. Here he is...
