New Websites in Progress

It's been a while since I've posted. I've been busy creating a few new sites and getting them well on their way. Hopefully, you will enjoy them, as much as I have enjoyed working on them.

MyRhacs
AlternativeLooks
Good Pit Bulls
Boxer Dog Breed Info

The first three will be set up as blogs, with updated info, whereas the Boxer website will be a static page that is pretty much set (minus occasional updates here and there).

I hope to be able to post a little more, but I have no guarantees.

The main update that I have besides a few new blogs, is that my 2012 breeding season has started. I'm a little late on it, but I do have eggs in the incubator.

One of my female chahouas is gravid, so I do hope to have chahoua babies this year.

Other than that, this year probably will not have as many offspring as I have had in the past. I am down to two breeding groups of crested geckos, and for the most part, I'm waiting on my chahouas and leachies to be of size. I only have the one breeding pair of pine isle chahouas breeding.

2012 Breeding Season

I feel like I'm slacking. I haven't introduced any of my breeding crested geckos together. It's mid-January, and I'm late, but it will all work out because by the time I start seeing eggs, classes for this semester will be completed.

This year, I've reduced my breeding groups down to two groups instead of the three I had last year. I will be working with yellows and oranges again, as well as my harlies and pinstripes.

I'm, also, hoping for a few chahoua gecko babies, but we will see what happens. This is the only pairing that I've made so far, and I haven't seen much from them. Chahouas are not the easiest to breed, so I'm not sure if I will get anything my first year trying to breed the species.

I have a few babies from 2011 left available, so if anyone is interested, shoot me an email. Otherwise, it will be a late start for the 2012 breeding season. Please bare with me as I get started this year.

New Sand Boas

I made a purchase with Jason at Jason's Jungle. He is great to deal with.


Anery male, het anery femal, and normal female

Stripe anery female and stripe het anery female
There are two more females somewhere in my house- 1 normal and 1 anery. They escape their original housing, to which I'm still not sure how. These guys are all tiny, so they could be anywhere. I actually had three escape, but by pure luck found one.

If anyone has any tips on finding snakes about the size of a pencil but shorter, please feel free to advise. I've checked under the fridge, under racks, between things, etc. They're somewhere, but I have no clue where.

November Dixie Reptile Show

If you're going to be in the Birmingham area, November 19th, make sure to stop by the Dixie reptile show.

I'll be there with a few ball python babies, gargoyle gecko juveniles, and maybe a crested gecko or two. Most of my table will be filled with Repashy CGD,  Large and XL kritter keepers, fake plants, and other supplies.

I will also bring some of my jewelry, such as earrings and bracelets.

Bring cash or credit card, I accept both.

Yellow Crested Gecko Picture

I'm a huge fan of bright yellow and orange crested geckos. I've had a few babies this year that I've held back, and plan on waiting till next year to decide what I'm going to do with them.

I've recently purchased a new yellow crested gecko female that I hope will be a nice addition to my yellow group.This girl has a few spots, brindle patterns, and a gorgeous golden yellow color. She'll go great with my male, which is a partial pinstripe with spotting.

As you can see I'm not only a fan of yellow, but I'm a fan of yellow crested geckos with pattern.





Dwane Nimmer is awesome!

New P.I. Chahoua Geckos

After playing around with a few new geckos and a random light bulb that I found in the reptile room, I snapped a few shots. These aren't the best, but it's not that easy to keep a light bulb with a gecko on it still. Neither of these two chahoua geckos have names yet, so I'm up for suggestions; when giving suggestions for gecko names, please keep in mind that I currently have Tag, Nimz, Skittles, Veyron, and Sahara. I don't generally pick reptile names based on themes.

Gecko 1 - Dervish (Name to Change. Name that was used on the breeder's website)



Gecko 2 - Honeyduke (Name to Change. Name that was used on the breeder's website)


Both geckos were purchased from Erica at Crown Jewel Reptiles.

After uploading the pictures, I'm considering renaming Honeyduke to Pixel, as every picture that I took of him, his markings looked like bad pixels. Time will tell if the name sticks.

Langley the New Leachianus Gecko



Here's my newest leachianus baby. He's a temp-sexed male, but it will be a few months, at least, for me to be able to attempt to sex him. Currently, Langley is about 3 weeks old and teeny tiny.

Both Quinby and Milo were small when I got them, but Langley is crazy small.

This leachianus gecko baby is a GT Type B, which is why I'm really hoping for a male. I have had trouble finding GT Type B leachies that I like, much less males or possible males.

I have Quinby, who was supposed to be a male, but was easily sexed as a female when she arrived in her UPS box last year.

Anyway, I was having fun with geckos and light bulbs, so I thought I'd show off Langley.
