My Rhac Collection

Just realized I haven't updated my collection pics
My first is a male leachie I named Stanley Steamer after the Gap Dragon in the Piers Anthony novels. Sitting at 130 grams with at least a year of growing to do still.

Second was a birthday present from my Dad after he fell in love with Cresties. She is a high contrast tricolour 99% pinstripe that I named Ginny. 37 grams and growing like a weed.

Dad went nuts and we all got Cresties from him for our birthdays, so my brother, his girlfriend and my Dad all have a female now, and I got a male for Dad for Fathers Day so we have quite the little group these days. Can't wait to see the hatchies when these kids grow up!

Re: My Rhac Collection

Thanks everyone, we love em! We chose the Cresties specifically because they were breeder holdbacks and part of the deal was that any babies get sold back to the breeder. We get the fun of babies with no worries over where they are going

I was having a hard time choosing a name for him but he has a very dragon-like head with large lip scales and he just looks prehistoric, but he isn't fierce or mean, so a dragon who can only steam but not blow flame just seemed appropriate. I loved the Xanth books too Kaetlinv, so punny! Haven't read them since elementary school but they stuck in my head.

The geckos all come out just as it's getting dark, but he is the loudest crashing around his viv and sometimes you get to hear him make the growly leachie call. Too cool!

Re: My Rhac Collection

Wow, very nice! Looks like they are on fire :P I went to the Expo in April and got to hold one for the first time, and totally fell in love with the female! I wanted one so bad but I had no money to spare

Re: My Rhac Collection

Beautiful leachie. It's always been a dream for me to own one. But they are very expensive if you want a nice Grande Terre.
what locale is yours?

Mine is a Moro x Isle of Pines. I need to get a good headshot of him, but Nikon is slow to ship these days

I was tempted by Grande Terre, but they tend to be uniformly darker and I love his colours. He will shift from a pale green nearly white, to a strong green with pink blotches right in front of you.
