    At some point the draw of this species having such a low cost to upkeep for the lifespan, can't be beat, except maybe pet rocks, is really a selling point... so for the people who say they don't care what the gecko looks like, the value of lineage tracking and going for improving projects means you have more lifespan / quality of life data (no matter how "good/poor" the gecko turned out for breeding projects) than you would get with buying "genes" from breeders you don't know who they are.. or pretty much anyone with a table full of $25 animals... So producing flames from geckos with 7 generations tracked is still going to be worth more than wholesale when you sell direct to pet owners.

      I have to disagree on how "easy" dalmatians are... I actually find narrowing down the white pattern I wanted to be far easier and progressing faster than working to improve base color and head structure in dals instead of just going with narrow heads and muddy bases... congrats on your build out though and hope to see the finished room soon!

I've also bought my geckos individually no wholesale buys for me, i knew i needed quality! So far i only regret my sable purchase cause i def over paid on him but at the time there weren't any sables on MM. Should have waited but I'm gonna have to bred him to a super high quality female next season to make up for him 😂 o well live n learn! Can't wait to see the building in it's finished form!

I couldnt imagine i have Cappuccinos and Lillys plus next year i may get a sable, nvm that have a whole reptile room now, im planning to have another room. Im starting to do Expos but up here in Canada it definitely alot more work lol. Its worth it in the end regardless of the outcome even the rough patchs are just that and you just carry on better times will come eventually the amount of big names outside of the crested gecko hobby, i have met and friends with now, is awesome definitely think you should have connections outside of just cresties they have a bunch outside perspective and ideas.
