    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hey all -- I have kept reptiles for the last 10 years, but mainly snakes. I've had one leopard gecko in the past which was a rescue, and I gave her to my brother (which he still has her, a beautiful Tremper albino). I recently got a really gorgeous Giant APTOR male on a trade, and I was originally going to sell him but I'm not sure what his market price should be? I'm also debating on keeping him if I can find a really nice female for him. What morph should I be looking for to pair with him? I was thinking another really nice APTOR, preferably a Giant or Super Giant. Thoughts?

Also, what are the size ranges for Giants? My boy is 1 year old and I weighed him at 74g last night. The person I got him from said he was a Giant but I just want to make sure. I attached a pic of him, best I can get until I can get him outside to use natural daylight. Please let me know what you all think!

Hes a great looking gecko. Do you know how old he is? 74g is small for a giant if hes fully grown. How long is he?

A lot of Aptors are het eclipse. If your going to breed him I would look into getting a Raptor, Eclipse or something het Raptor/Eclipse.
 
I had mentioned he's a year old in my first post, but I have no idea at what age leo's are considered fully grown. As for length -- from tip to tip, he's about 7-8".
 
Oh, sorry must have missed that. Leo's are pretty much full grown at a year. Giant males are usually over ten inches long and 100+ grams.

He's still a great looking gecko. He has good body color and a nice amount of carrot tail.
