Morphs & Projects – What’s the Diff?!?

Sometimes breeders, ourselves included, give a title such as “Xander Mardi Gras” or “Dirty Line” to describe a particular group of geckos. Titles like these are used to describe Projects, not Morphs. So why do we do it? To cause mass confusion? To make a gecko seem fancier so we can bump up the price? Not quite. Project titles can be a very useful tool…not just to the breeders, but to our customers as well. Read on to find out why we title our Projects, how Projects are different than Morphs, and how all of this info can help you to select that perfect gecko!

Its All In The Build

A Guide To The Structural Traits Of Crested Geckos – Its pretty common knowledge that crested geckos come in a wide variety of colors and patterns. But did you know they also come in a variety of shapes & sizes? People often ask me about the structure of crested geckos – What makes a gecko “crowned”? What does an “upturned crest” look like? What does the term “gator head” mean?

Here’s a fun picture guide to some of their structural qualities.

Common Shed Issues – How to Safely Offer Your Gecko a Helping Hand

It may happen from time to time that your gecko’s shed will not be complete. If your gecko has tiny bits of shed stuck to his toes, tail tip, or other parts of his body, he may need your help to remove it. With about 15 minutes and some common household items, you can have your gecko looking like new again!

Odd Thomas

You would think with a hatch date in early 2011, we would know what gender Odd Thomas is without a doubt….but that’s where things get tricky…

Rocky

Those pins are so white its almost blinding! Great contrast, great color, great pinning, and great lateral dashing….Rocky is just great in a nutshell!!…

Roxford

Roxford is a beautiful high % pinstripe & looks to have some tri-color potential. I love the classic pinstripe look, with a clear lateral line which the pattern does not extend above. It really puts a focus on the pinning & just makes it pop.

PepperJak

This is an absolutely stunning red from our dirty project. Geckos from this group have super bright colors & feature nice pops of white, multi-colored spotting, and orange-tipped crests….

Fratelli

I just love this super dark gecko! The pinning on this kid is really interesting. Its displayed in a fade of sorts – going from deep orange at the head, to lighter orange, cream, and then finally white at the base of the tail. I think this would be a really unique project to work with.
