He is not technically a Leopard Gecko, Mike is a couson species called African Fat-tailed Gecko. They have the same care needs, but they are less colorful.(dark brown, with light brown bands)
Mike there is full grown, i've had him for about 6 years and I think he is about 8 because he was full grown when I bought him. Sadly I had some problems with humimity and sheding in the past so he is missing some of his fingers, you might notice in the picture.
I personally like the African's a little better. They are just so cute ^^ The only problem with buying on is that almost all the African Fat-tails you will find in your petstore are wild caught. They aren't too popular yet, so there arn't many captive breeders. I have thought about breeding them, but I live in Alaska, so their arn't to many homes for them anyway, and I haven't seen any good females. They also cost around 60 bucks. >.< I just bought a juvie leo for like 20 bucks though..
Anyway, I'm glad you like him. He is really sweet but hard to photograph because he is so dark.
