New Baby ~ Star (PICTURES!)

Hey Everyone! I've been here on and off since I've moved out of the apartment and back home (yeah, I know, most of my recent posts mention this. lol.) - and I'm trying to make a re-appearance since I'm slowly backing into the reptile hobby. Because of my new job (AND a promotion already!), I've been crazy busy, so haven't had the chance to post until today!

Now that I have more free time, I wanted to share the new baby I got about a month ago. I bought Star at 1.5 months, so she's about 2.5 months old now. I bought her from Jon of SFGeckos, who is extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and very cool.

I just wanted to share some pictures - this is the re-start of my collection and I'm hoping to expand it in the future. I want to focus primarily on leopard geckos this time (and maybe one or two AFTs) instead of all the other reptiles I had before (beardie, cresteds, toads, frogs, russian tort, etc).

I am currently saving for a Nikon D80, so expect more professional pictures in the near future!

"Star" at 1.5 months (using my bro's point-and-shoot cam)


Star at 2.5 months, the day after shedding (using my uncle's iPhone - which is why it's kinda dark and shows more orange than actual, see the next 2 pictures for actual color).


Star at 2.5 months, with my 7 y/o cousin (who's in LOVE with reptiles, arachnids, and insects since my very 1st leo in 2003/2004).

I'll be around more often than before with my free time. Which reminds me - Where can I find a calendar of all reptile shows in Northern California?

Absolutely gorgeous ! You should be very proud welcome back to Leopard Geckos !

that is one nice gecko!!

Very nice gecko. I like her freckle spot on her shoulder.

She is a beautiful gecko, and I am not at all surprised she came from Jon. :-)

AWESOME. Sweet lookin critter ya got there.

BEAUTIFUL Leopard Gecko!

Thanks for the comments everyone!

I just wanted to update:

Those pics were taking JULY 29, 2007 when she was 2.5 months old at 16 grams. LAST NIGHT, Sept. 11, 2007, she is 4 months old and is weighing in at 29 grams.

She's growing well, is very active, and is now accustomed to handling (phew!)

Thanks again to Jonathan of SFGeckos

Hello,

Wow beautiful gecko you have there! She IS definitely growing very fast & that is great she loves to be handled, too.
