Crested Gecko that's ALWAYS fired up...

One of the babies that I hatched in March is always fired up. I mean ALWAYS. I've never seen it turn another shade at all. It's kept by it's self in it's own tub like I do with all the babies I hatch. This geckos' sibling fires up on and off like they normally do. Anyone else experience this? It's a drop dead gorgeous gecko and I plan on keeping it if it going to stay like this!

Hmmmm......maybe I'll get a response if I post pictures.


With flash.


No flash.

Another shot.

I sold one to Apex exotics that looks similar but with more orange patten and stay fired up 100% of the time also , it's about 4 months old now and hasn't fire down yet.i think it's kind of neat . Congrats

Interesting. I'm wondering if this particular gecko will stay like this as an adult. I guess I'll wait and find out!

I have a gecko that is always fired up, too. S/he's over a year old and I've always seen him/her in dark colors!

For sure interesting. Hoping these are keepers for you guys and we can see if this continues. For sure different. Pretty geckos too.

i'm just curious how is your gecko over a year old and you don't know the sex of it ? I'd be a bit concerned . My geckos are at twenty grams in five and half months and usually sexable females by then ,males i can usually sex at about twelve to fourteen grams due to their visible "attributes" which would be around the four month mark .


Inter - I would say yes , i've heard the one my buddy has is permafired so i would say your chances are pretty good.Then again different blood matures differently.
