    Awesome! Getting ready to pair my cinny couple I got from tremper last year. Pretty stoked. Hatchrite is more expensive but for a beginner hobby breeder I'd definitely recommend as incubation medium, one less variable to worry abt. Also tremper's books are great resource for new breeders

      So jealous. I've been wanting a tremper gecko for years! I lived only an hour away from him for a good while but I was always waiting for the perfect timing and then things just didn't work out at all. I eventually do want to create a habitat again and then get a tremper gecko although it irks the shit out of me that I could have gone there in person and seen his facility and picked up the gecko and now I'd have to do shipping because I'm many states away.
      One of these days.... waiting for better times again. 😐

Don't get down on yourself too much. If you really want one I think you should get one (before or after moving). Moving with a gecko is pretty easy. I just moved with 17 leos + 9 other animals..

    Do you check for ovulation before putting the Male in with the female or do you just put them together and hope for the best

    I just have no idea what morphs I can breed together. Do I breed the same morph or two different ones? I obviously have a lot to learn before I think about starting to breed geckos, but I’m just curious.
