    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....

Here as some updated fat tails pics. The first is of my big male. He peaked out at 140g but is now 134g after breeding season. The pic isn’t the greatest either. His colors are really washed out.

The next is my largest female weighing in a 106g.

Thanks Jeremy and Glenn! Yeah, he is a beast. The female in the pic below him is also pretty big.
 
It looks like that gutload and the lobster roaches really work! I'll have to look into getting a bag of gutload myself. My fat tails could use a boost in weight like that. Can't wait to see the offspring posted for sale too! Again...great fat tails.

very nice!

nice BIG AND FAT geckos! back in 2003? i had a 2yr old ft male get over 130g but thats the biggest one i ever had...i dont like putting too much body fat on my female breeder geckos...body condition of 3.5-4.5 (out of 5) is decent for me...they actually do better (in my opinion) if they arent borderline "obese"...=) u just spoil them cody haha anyways more pics!

Yeah I hear what you’re saying. I don’t like having too large of geckos either, especially males because they become so lazy. I swear though when these fat tails go on a diet they still gain weight. LOL.
