Finally an albino

aisha Feb 29, 2004 08:32 PM

I went to the All Ohio Show and got this adorable albino. It looked very different then the other albinos the guy was selling. I got her for $20 and she seems very healthy. She is mostly pink with smaller strips of bright yellow. I have to get a photo soon but how? Her eyes are really sensitive.

Take a photo from above in a dimly lit room so the light doesn't go directly in the eyes. To "condition your gecko to light" this is what i did. Keep her in a room without a light bulb near her but where there is light in the room like from a overhead lamp. Then after a couple months some flash photography here and there wont be a problem.

Thanks, I wasn't sure how to adjust her to light. I know their very senitive when their young and I don't want to blind her.

How was the all ohio show? I didn't go this month because there weren't very many leos last month. Good job on getting a good lookin leo!

It was good alot more lizards this month. I couldn't stay long though I had some friends with me and one doesn't like crowds or snakes but I still made out well. She is so cute and feisty so I named her Ryoko.
