Does a Leopard Gecko like this exist?

chansen Sep 25, 2003 09:07 AM

Hi,

I've been trying to figure out if anyone breeds a gecko like I'm hoping to find. I've never come across a photo that represents what I'm looking for, so I'm opening it up to you all in hopes that someone has one or has seen one.

First off, I prefer Leos with normal spotting patterns. It seems that most folks are aiming for Hypos with their breeding projects, but I've always liked the classic look best. That said, I also really like the intense tangerine coloration that is available now.

So what I've been looking for is a Leo with a bright orange body color and with the full black spotting of a normal.

But is anyone doing this?

Thanks in advance.

I have seen them, don't know who is working on them. I think there is a pic in The Leopard Gecko Manual, halloween morph is what they are called I believe.

closest thing i personally have seen is this gecko

i got her last year from tribal propogation. i have been looking for a mate for her of similar appearance but have yet to find exactly what im looking for. this up coming breeding season i will be breeding her to a very tangerine male with a dark patterned head and small amts of black on the back, maybe i can produce just one that looks like her... i can have my dreams. we shall see what next year brings and hopefully one of these days i can find a similar male

When i was engaged my fiance and i picked out matching gold celtic wedding bands. They were very nice. I've been looking for a ring that has little lizards going all around it, so far no luck. I might actually make one myself as we did peuter work in school and i could use one of the pics of my leos as a template.

Look at that thumb nail!! Looks like my son's.

I'm trying to find that stuff that tastes bad - for thumb suckers - and paint it on his nails. LOL.

That leo turned out really nice - very unique looking. If I remember, that was the 3rd leo I JUST MISSED getting from Tribal!!! LOL

This guy came from Albey a year and half ago. He's got a real cool rusty orange color to him, but no carrot tail. He is huge, too. He's currently my biggest at 94g.

Thanks for looking
