Yeah, he looks long. He might have a weird metabolism due to his unusual length, that might be why his tail is skinnier than normal. He's just long and thin instead of short and fat. I can't tell if he is a Tremper though, maybe if we could have a picture of one from a bird's eye view?

Your gecko looks like a long normal, I don't think it's a Tremper.

StinaUIUC Apr 13, 2004 03:50 PM

he knows Killer's not an albino...Tremper also has a giant strain, and that's what he may be...I think I've heard that they tend to be on the thin side...at least when they're growing.

-ignorance is not to be punished when one is trying to gain knowledge...what scares me is the vast number of people who, when given the information to gain knowledge, choose to ignore it.

He is a long normal leo. i have 2 4 yr old leos and my female is 10 inches and my male is 10 1/4 and they are 2 normals.

CoolGecko Apr 13, 2004 05:42 PM

It is not Gaint and most of over 2 year old Geckos gets over 10 inches in males from what I seen.

Hi

Tremper is and has been working on breeding geckos to get longer than the normal size gecko would. To date, there longest one as of last year was 11 inches and they said this year they are hoping for 12 inches or longer. They call them Giants. Moose is there biggest at 11 inches 152 grams.
