    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 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 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).

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?
 
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 :)
