View Full Version : i need help please
hey guys and girls, i want to start breeding my leo is a female its about 4-5 years old, it weighs about 42 grams which seems kinda small but she looks healthy. she is a high yellow ( u can see the pic below). Now can someone give me some tips or point me to a good site for learning about breeding leos. i read one before and it doesnt seem to hard. also anyone know where i can buy a decent good priced incubator from, im in florida, if that makes any difference. also what would be a good morph to breed with a high yellow? i love the hypo tangerines but i wanna see what you guys think i should use for the male i want something different. well thanks for the help in advance

A few things before you start! Most breeders breed there leo's between the ages of 1-5yrs. so your girl is getting a little old to start stressing her out with a young male. But if you realy feel you want to Tangerine is a good plan. Hi yellow hypo tangs. and supers are a line trait not a morph. Breeding any morph to her would only produce het. normals anyway. If you realy want to breed I would sugest keeping this sweet girl as a pet and buying a pair of sub adults that are the same age. and let them grow together.
ok do you think i could get some in for this season or you think i would have to wait for next season? yeah line trait is what i meant but i was just referring to the diff colors as morphs, but i will know what to say now lol. also i want to produce some really cool looking leos, i know for one i want a hypo tang but what others should i think about ?? thanks for your help and i wont be using this one as a breeder :)

Get the leopard gecko manual! All your questions will be answered in there! It will also explain how to MAKE an incubator. I bred 8 of the little b*****ds that way, they kicked but, not one hickup!

I think he will be updating it soon.SHTCB means Super Hypo Tangerine Carot Tail Baldy.
bLiNkIe I got this male at a year old.It was one of Mikes hold backs.We did some loans and trades.What he sells them for I,m not really sure but I have seen them sell for $1,200 on Urban Geckos web site and this one is also 100% pure Urban blood
I believe Mike has some KILLER Leos availible now or very soon.
Brigitte@Kelvin
damn 1200 wow !! thats a little out of my price range but i guess i ll start small LOL
is there a big market out there for geckos ? cuz i dont wanna breed some and then get stuck with them you know what i mean, im in florida so im not sure what you would know about down here .....
sorry i didnt even notice i was on my friends name at work... so blinkie was really me LOL
