My male Emerald

His name is Emeril (hehehehe)

Thanks for looking

that male is beauty...very clean looking Northern....how long have you had the pair and are they CBB?

Thank you for the compliment. We have had him since the 01 Daytona Show. He is WC, but doesn't have the temperment to go with it. She is CBB. Received her on a trade about 2 years ago on some (believe it or not) leopard geckos. I am hoping she will produce some babies for me this year. I put them together last year and they copulated a few times, but nothing. So I am trying it again this year. Any tips?

Thanks

Very nice animals. Cool pics too, especially the female. How old is she?

She is about 3 1/2 years of age.

Thanks for the compliments.

Correction 4 1/2 years for the female

the male is a little over 5

They may not have been old enough yet. We, as our personal choice, don't try breeding females until they are 5 years old and close to 5' long with good body weight. As well, we've had a CB male that wouldn't mate at 4ish, but then did the next year. Maybe they'll breed for you this year.

Very true..

Thank you for reminding me. Hopefully this year they will. They are well over 5 feet and heavy. I haven't weighed them, but when I changed the cages out and put them in the "temp" containers...they were pretty heavy... wasn't ready for that.

I can't wait. I am excited about this years breeding season...

Thanks
