...for me, but this time it's not with crested
geckos. A slight intro...
Back in October 2000 I attended the NM reptile
Expo in Albuquerque as a vendor with my boss. At a previous expo I had
the great pleasure of meeting our listserve's truly, Greg and Leann
Christenson. I had been to there site and fell in love with P. laticauda
angularis. Anyway, to make a long story short I purchased a F2
Generation of P. l. angularis from Greg and Leann back in Oct. '00. They
are housed in a model 15 Lizard Lounge (reptile cage made by Oceanic Systems)
fully planted with a pothos and some dark broad leafed plant called
draco-something. I RARELY see either the male or female out. Well,
about 15 minutes ago I had gome upstairs to go to bed. I was setting my
alarm which is next to their cage. Something caught my eye. You
got it, Generation F3. Sitting happily on a pothos leaf was a
hatchling. The fun part will be catching it and setting up a tank for
it. Unfortunately I am completely unprepared (like I stated, I rarely
see the male or female out) for this. The hatchling is TINY and I
suppose I need to get some pinheads in and very soon. Anyway, just
figured I'd share this. Has me really stoked.
Later,
Chris Newsom
Many thanks Greg and
Leann
