Hey all, my male keeps getting a darker rust color in amongst his orange with every shed, is this normal? is it somehting I should be worried about? and should I be worried about his temperment? he is VERY dosile, he can scoot when he wants to, but I can very easily handle him. My female on the other hand is harder to pick up and is kinda skittish. He's only 15 days older than her and he's about 4 mos old. am I just a worry wart or is something weird goin on?

I wouldn’t worry at all, because they both look very healthy. It is very normal for a gecko to change color as they grow. If you mated the two you would end up with some very nice orange babies, best of luck.

dont worry about it my super tang has it too, and it is real dark also here is a pic of her, you can kinda see it but not to well a male we got has it too. I think its just a deeper pigment of tang
