What are the specs to qualify as a "giant" Crested??? I have seen 50 gram Males and 60 gram Females. Big but giant????

never heard of a pure white crested gecko. Some giant geckos (leachies) are mostly white with some dark markings or marbling. Check the classifieds on kingsnake or you can check the links below:

the white one im looking for is called the moonglow. i've seen it on a site and its also in the crested gecko manual i think it is. anyway, i was also looking for the giant crested gecko. i know those exist too, i've held one. well thanks for your help.

you're wasting your time looking for a " white" crested gecko as of right now. they do not exist. this is the closest you will you will come to finding some of your own... http://www.pangeareptile.com/moonglows.htm
now, within i'd say 10 years or so, it is very likely that someone will have produced enough " blonde" harlequins, or creamsicle patterned crested geckos that the white/cream takes over as the dominant color, then you'll be looking at a sweet crested
but as of now, it does not exist.

I know that they both exist. Moonglows are not pure white, but more of a very light gray. I have never seen one for sale though. The few I've seen, where found by mistake. They were bought as light yellow juvenilles, and grew up to lose all their color and look almost white. (So maybe try buying a few lighter colored yellow babies and see what happens.) Giants do exist also, but I've never seen one for sale. I think these two types of cresteds are so rare that anyone that owns them is holding onto the breeder and their offspring, probably to make a project out of these morphs. I know this doesn't help much. Just wait a few years, I'm sure they will be on the market before you know it!
