Africans...
Here is a pic of my african fat tail gecko (AFT). He is a male, I used to have another male in Novemeber but I traded him for an adult male viper gecko.
What do you think?

Not sure about this one being peach phase. I just usually get what I like and I liked the colours on this guy. Plus, the $50 price tag was too good to pass up.
For fat tails, I would have to recommend Linda. I'm not sure if she has any females currently, but if not, she is bound to have a bunch in the spring. Her website is here... http://www.painteddesertgeckos.com/
Linda provides excellent advise on anything that you need answered and is a pleasure to do business with.
Wish you luck with your search,
-Adam

Niiiiice! Both of them 
What I still need to complete my fat-tail group is a couple of stripes. I guess that's this year's project.
I agree with your assessment of Linda.

For fatties, my money is with Niagara reptiles. Very reliable and stunning animals.

Nice geckos guys. I'm thinking of a nice 1.3 group of AFT's by March. By then I'll have an extremely large place and I have a feeling my collection and breeding will bloom quite a bit but we'll see.

not too sure about the math there watts501 (3+3=8?), but as for breeding, many contend that a two month cooling period is required to have a successful season. I know that they have been bred without it, but more often than not, it seems to be necessary. Other than that, make sure all your geckos are healthy and of good weight prior to being cooled.
Currently, I'm just waiting on a bunch of females to lay eggs. The anticipation is killin' me! It will be worth the wait though.

Mine is on a peat/sand mix, and my fattie I traded was on the same.
