Here is a pic I took of him a right before I started introducing him to the females... maybe 3 months ago? (I'm bad at estimating time)

This picture was taken in indoor lighting... while he still looks great, some natural sunlight really helps show his coloration.

He is still being bred right now, housed with 3 beautiful tangerines and breeding like a mad man. This guy is probably one of the best breeders I have come across, an animal to say the least!

Hope you like it.

He is amazing!!!!, I cant stop looking at him. Definantly the best looking gecko I have ever seen. Its kinda different becuase instead of the contrast being between black and yellow, it is between the orange and the yellow. Do you mind if I have his pic as my wallpaper??

I've been wanting to ask you this for a while. He is truely a one of a kind, I have never seen an animal nearly as close that looks like him. Did you produce him yourself or did you buy him? I'm thinking that you produced him, as I don't think anyone would want to sell him, but maybe I'm wrong? Thanks.

I'm pretty sure he came from High Quality Reptiles. I remember when it was for sale and when Ross got him. I wasn't even in the country at the time, but I was long-distance lurking.

He's an awesome gecko. I can't imagine what Ross will get for him when he eventually decides to let him go. Just remember me when you do, okay, Ross?

I got him from HQ Reptiles.

I was browsing the classifieds when this guy popped up, I was shocked to say the least, so I emailed them like 100000 times. Matt responded quickly and I paid up.

After getting all the paper work taken care of Matt drove him across the border (from Canada) and sent him Delta Dash.

Like I said, I consider myself VERY lucky to have snatched him up.

I beleive Matt told me the reason they sold him was because they were looking for something more hypo.

Lucky me I guess. =)

I don't imagine I'll be letting go of this fella for quite some time, if ever, but don't worry Rob I'll keep you in mind when and if the time comes, hehe.

that oppurtunity come along. If I may ask how much was he? I understand if you don't want to tell us as that gecko must have cost a dozen pretty pennys.

I beleive after shipping he cost me a bit over $500... very reasonable in my opinion, as I would have paid a couple thousand at least for him.

HQ just didn't see him in the same way I did, they wanted something hypo, but I thought he was as a one of a kind, amazing animal.

I feel really lucky to be working with him, its fun to watch his babies hatching out. And next year I should hatch some that resemble their father, its going to be very exciting.

At the very least, I expected him to cost $1500, but only $500?! Thats crazy! He seems pretty hypo to me, only one spot, bacasally there's only that crazy red stripe on him. You found the deal of the century! HQ must have an unbelievable male red stripe to sell one like that for that price. I can't wait to see what you hatch! I'm really anticipating your albino Red Stripes, you can bet I'll be buying one of those one of these years.

When I say hypo, I mean they wanted a male that had a more uniform body coloration.

My guy has purple/blue/yellow contrasting pattern on his sides to go with the red stripe, the male they kept has an orange on orange/yellow body.

You can see what I'm talking about in the pic.

Did you make them a deal, or is my memory going?

Hi Rob,

I dont beleive he was on their site, but I could be wrong.

I saw the ad just a couple minutes after it was posted and emailed them right away.
