Oh My how they change! (baby pics vs yearling pics)

Lyn Oct 11, 2003 02:00 PM

I can never get over how much Leos change in their first year. I sure would love to see comparison pics of other peoples Leos, post em if you got em! Here are some baby pics of my male high yellow, Scooter, at a few weeks old in July of 2002...

He was so tiny!

Here he was in October of 2002 at 3 months old...

And here he is just a few days ago!

I just love his great big spots! A few of them are heart shaped

He's such a good boy. I hope to start bringing him to some of the public displays my local herp club does to help educate the public about reptiles. This pic was taken a day or two before he shed. Gotta love Leo smiles!

If you have comparison pics of your Leos as they've grown up I sure would love to see them!

This is Scooter's brother. His name is Trouble. I've actually recently sold Trouble to a friend of mine who had all females and wanted a male. I still have him since she's working on his new enclosure. Here is a pic of Trouble taken when he was a few weeks old...

And a few days ago at a year and 3 months old...

I'll miss him but he's going to a great home.

This is my female Rainwater, her name is Buttercup. I don't have any hatchling pics because I adopted her at 3 months old. Here is a pic taken when I first got her last October.

And now a year later...

She kept the circle on her back that she had when she was younger.

Wow, that leo has really changed! I wish I took more pics of my female when she was growing up. I now have my baby and I'm documenting his growth like crazy! When I look at his first day pic and his 1 month old pic the difference is crazy. I should take another pic soon. His pattern is beinning to break up into spots now!

Very gorgeous geckos by the way, Lyn! They do change so much, dont they? Well, here is a pic of Gypsy when I first brought her home.

And here she is now! A year later and 75 grams.

She is a lot brighter and more orange in real life, its so hard to capture their colors on camera! I think she's a pretty good looking gecko, considering I got her at Petsmart =) Thanks for looking!
