Blue crested gecko

Palex134 Jan 08, 2004 07:01 PM

Ok ill admit it im not a big fan of geckos. I had house geckos when i was a kid and they wern't pleasant. My dad ended up steping on it after it got loose:{ But anyway i was reading an old issue of reptiles magazine and saw an article aout crested geckos. I looked Throught the "ultmate pet lizard?" article and saw a picture of a pinstripe gecko that was blue. This wAS the coolest crested gecko ever does anyone know what it was. It was truley blue.

Thanks

There is really no such gecko. The true color is a very light silver/grey. When a picture is taken with a flash the reflection shows blue.

I saw that article as well. It was definetly a trick of the light. A MAJOR trick of the light. Possibly even, enhanced on a computer.

The pic I posted is not an animal in shed. The pic in the artical is not a trick or computer enhanced. As I said in my original post the animals are a silver/grey and the flash reflects blue.
