Where are my sunglasses?

Sjoe, those are some of the most striking Leos I have ever seen.

Seems like you've had a great season with the all the odds in your favour.

Huge congrats!

Well done man!

Its great to see that someone is working with leos and producing some really nice stuff.

Hopefully the Leo market here can become as large as the one in the States.

Good Day Everyone!

Just would like to thank everyone who bought geckos from this project, and my apologies to those who I could not helped with a specimen, yet.

For interest sake, here is how one of the hatchlings developed since 16 January 2013. This gecko's reference number is "C3:#4" for those who would like to refer back to the previous hatchling photos that were posted earlier in this thread. This gecko will be incorporated with by current breeding stock. Current weight: 16g.

Congrats on the hatchlings.

What ratio do you use to mix your perlite to water?

At 32C how long did it take your sunglows to hatch?

Beautiful geckos

I used a 50:50 perlite to water ratio by weight.

At a constant 32 degrees Celsius, they hatched within 34-38 days.
