|  | I love it LOUD! Subscriber | Join Date: Oct-06 Location: Sutherland Shire NSW Age: 32 | | | The O.lesueurii are psycho geckos, they were in their hide and if I disturb them they will fly up and out the tub before I have time to blink. Complete nut cases.
Heres my little boy Twiggy. I think he's one of my cutest geckos. He was one of user 'Twiggz' deformed ones (front leg). Would like to pair him up with an unrelated female and see what happens genetically with this, but female taenicauda seem to be as rare as hens teeth at the moment. I'm assuming by the bulge at the base of his tail its male, I was surprised as it was quite obvious like it is even at about 5 mths old  |

He's a very nice looking boy though. You seem to be getting into the Strophurus alot!

You seem to be getting into the Strophurus alot! | Not sure about the genetics, I think Twiggz (Matt) was going to re-pair the parents of his deformed hatchies and see what happens, I vaguely remember the thought was that they might have been from too many generations of inbreeding, hence why he was going to re-pair them.
You are right about the females.
Yes, there is something about the Strophurus, especially the taenicauda and the ciliaris. Cute little things! |

|  | Subscriber | Join Date: Nov-06 Location: Wollongong Age/Gender: 23  | | | | Yeah your spot on Martin. Unfortunately though i was a bit slow in splitting the pair up....both pairs are gravid and due to drop anyday. I guess i'll have to wait the season out again, since gex are known for retaining the sperm.
If you get a bit of success with the katherines let me know......i wouldn't mind a pair at some stage. Maybe i could fix you up with something depending on how i go this season.
I'm really surprised at how well Twiggy has gone, thats awesome. He's definately a male.
I told you the little buggers were addictive though......now whos running out of room? lol

|  | I love it LOUD! Subscriber | Join Date: Oct-06 Location: Sutherland Shire NSW Age: 32 | | | | Hey Twiggz, yep, Twiggy is an adorable little guy (To those who don't know, I got Twiggy off Twiggz, hence his name!). He gets around quite well on his leg, although cannot even climb the side of a plastic critter cage - can't even get off the ground. He spends a lot of time on his stick. I tell you what though, he can jump like you wouldn't believe!!! Very cute to see him do it too. I'm confident (hoping) he will live a normal life.
Not sure if I will be letting go of any of the Katherines. Depends on how many I get I might hold them back.
I've only stopped buying as I have no more room (and lack of $).
Sockbat - I got the background from Pet Care 2000 at Taren Point. |

I'm out of room full stop. Cleaning the garage soon to make room for more though. lol
Who ever said cars go in garages??
