The three babies are doing well. I started them of with a couple of baby gekko's but I ran out and was forced to force feed them. In the beginning a little stressful, but now its no prob and they are growing like crazy. They are at the point that they swallow a pinky themselves after I have placed the head in the mouth. I am certain that they will eventually hunt and consume live mice on their own. They seem to do well on mice even though its not the natural diet.
I did find out that the young really need 100% humdity to shed without problems.
Anyhow..here are some pics. The young are beautifull brown green with pinkish white belly. Enjoy.

I am not sure if feeding only mice is a good thing here. Mice contain a lot of fat, can cause a rapid buildup around the heart and liver, I think keeping them as close to a natural diet as possible is called for.
