and do they look healthy?

#1 i got from petco. im not sure how old she is. but she was purchased on 6/19. what kind is she? my guess is patternless?

# 2 and three were purchased from the reptile show on 7/15. i think the one is blizard. her hatch date was 6/19. i think she looks a little skinny, do you agree? she eats a lot but i dont know.

#3 i have no clue what this one is. proably normal? its hatch date was 6/1.

they are all female. i have had them sexed.

what do you think?

ALSO i want to breed them. what kinda boy should i get? is there anything i can get that would make interesting babies?

MY GIRLS!!

#1 when i first got her.

and now...

#2

#3

I am sorry if what I am going to say sounds harsh....
But if you can´t sex your own geckos you shouldn´t try to breed them.... IMO

thats helpful. thats really what i posted this for RIGHT?

i was asking what kinda they look to be. because i was not positive.

Wow Lecoiskin, you're definitely the kind of person that makes almost every forum out there blow this one away. Try to be a more productive member why don't ya.

ReptileGirl,

#1 - Looks to be a Patternless
#2 - Looks like a Blizzard
#3 - A Stripe

Nice lookin' Leopards. Look on the underside, below the vent a male will have two large hemipenal buldges and inbetween it's kind legs would be a darker set of femoral pores (these look like an upside down V and sometimes there's a wax secretion coming out). Females have the femoral pores, but they're much, much lighter.

It'll be easier to tell once they get bigger.

thanks a LOT!!! they are are girls! i just need a boy now. any suggestions?

Make sure you read up on breeding as much as possible it alaway's helps !

and try and find a suitable male in good health you can alaways try the classifieds or try to find a store near you make sure there healthy and there weight is able to breed

just make sure your females are the right weight as well .

( a few weeks back i bought a female blizzard she ending up being prego . and ended up having the clutch a week later . i ending up loosing thee eggs becuase shipping & handling did not mail on weekens..
after that me and my mom read as much as possible
and read upgood up to date sites for breeding as well
i would so recommend buying " The Herpetoculture of Leopard Geckos "
explains alot of detail even though its abit expencive is so helpful about 39 bucks
on the bright side shes had 3 clutchs and the 6 eggs are healthy and she should be laying her 5th this week .

good luck

oh. lol thats funny.

i almost bought that book with my last check... looks like im gonna have to get it. thanks for the info.

im also just not too sure what kinda boy i should get. like... morph wise.

i like she super snows though.

well , try and picture your self if you arebreeding for fun or future bisness ??...

my bizzard is father was a tremper albino .... ( not of my choice .. lol
but ill get normal babys het for albino and bizzard so ill see how it gos .. its my first time breeding myself .

yeah. its more for fun. but i mean... it would be cool to get something besides normal babies out of it.

not necessary though.

yeah ! , well if you wanna do it as a hobby its a pretty cool thing!

wow. beautiful. what is that?

tremper sunglow , .... i can;t wait to see her all grown up ! ...

whoa...first off its tough to sex young geckos, even experienced breeders and keepers often cant be 100% positive when sexing a young animal. my first leo was sold to me as a male and turned out to be female (and she came from a very reputable breeder). lets not try to discourage someone's enthusiasm. how are we supposed to help eachother learn new things if we are put off from the subject???

ok. i just have to say thank you to the two people who actually took the time out to answer my questions... with respect for the fact that im new to this.

I REALLY APPRECIATE IT!
