In '95 I purchased a pair of geckos from Ron Hatcher that had a slight orangish look (hi-yellows were the hot thing then). After line breeding and outcrossing to all ringed tailed animals, these are popping out for the first time this year. It looks like the tail rings were cut into pieces then glued back on randomly, different than the jungle/stripe tail. Too bad the one with the banded tail doesn't have it. Looks like we'll have to settle for 100% carrot.

Wow Dan. Simply amazing. And you say you only do this for fun...
If you did go and decide to make a webpage and sell em, I think you'd make a pretty penny.
Very, very nice. I'm rooting to the top right one... and the top left one... wow. You've done alot with these little guys. 
Keep it up!
