Tokays might be the biggest aholes hahha
meanest cusses you can get. I think I'd rather cuddle a caiman over the tokay. They would pick fights with EVERYTHING that wasn't them. Funny story: The male felt threatened by the Sega Genesis Sonic the Hedgehog game. I would play that, and he would be facing the tv, full threat display, and chirp/bark at the game. Something about the ring collecting sound effect royally pissed him off.

Here is the male and female.(female is the first picture) The male is a beast in size, yet he eats so little and most of the time just disregards food whenever offered. The female eats like a pig when she does not have eggs, then her appetite is less with the eggs. I said previously that the baby is high yellow, but that isn't the true morph. Based on experience, it will look like a high yellow as an adult with the phenotype but the genotypes are all mixed, the parents and offspring aren't pure. I breed them and sell them to be pets, with mixed genes, not as a professional breeder who knows all the genes, morphs, and stuff inside out haha. Each baby is a surprise as to what it will look like, the babies they make have so many different, cool, patterns. Here are some babies they produced throughout the years with cool patterns. I made around $200 last year from selling on craigslist and maintaining the geckos is really not much work.

Such gorgeous babies. I can't pick a favorite.

They are gorgeous! Thanks for appreciating them, many people in my family aren't a fan of geckos/lizards in general lol.

Love the leopard geckos! I got a lil female who is in the 16-17 years old range. I know one day she will pass away... But I will have to get another when that day comes.
