New Dal - Pongo

Here is my new guy Pongo. I am so in love with his colors. What would you consider this to be other than dalmatian?

Probably brindle… I think tiger is usually more defined? I’m not too great at this yet, so someone else can feel free to correct me.

Hey @101_geckos! Mr. Pongo is one handsome boy! I sure wish I knew about gecko morphs but I don’t. But you will have plenty of answers soon!

He has a couple of heart spots

He matches Elmo

I’d say he’s a tiger ink spot Dalmatian

Could be the lighting, but his back looks to have a huge dip in it… Any more pics of his back?

thank you for helping. i would have tried but I have an ear infection in both my ears and can’t think strait because of how bad it hurts. I am so lucky that I have to go through this around 4 times a year. Perks of being a swimmer I guess

Ouch, ear infections are nasty! Hope you feel better soon.

Where are these love hearts… I’m still half asleep & can’t see them

logar · October 14, 2023, 3:11am

I an also half asleep so I might just be imagining them

I agree his stripes are pretty vertical so could be considered a phantom tiger inkspot dal

foxreptile · October 14, 2023, 3:20am

I think I see one in his front leg also! Gota love a heart

My angry gecko has one also

Phantom tiger dal x

Yeah i wasnt sure if brindle or tiger. Still hard for me to know for sure lol.

101_geckos · October 15, 2023, 12:59am

Thank you! I think he is very handsome too

101_geckos · October 15, 2023, 1:00am

I LOVE Elmo!!!

101_geckos · October 15, 2023, 1:00am

Oh no! I hope you feel better soon. Ear pain is no fun😔

101_geckos · October 15, 2023, 1:02am

Ooooo i love the heart on your lil guy!

101_geckos · October 15, 2023, 1:06am

Im out of the country in Canada but ill grt some soon as i get back. Only ones in my phone are these ones. I didnt notice anything wrong with him before i left. If he had a dip what would it be from?

foxreptile · October 15, 2023, 4:47am

Thank you, my fella hates me… He is so scatty with me. The only gecko I’ve ever owned that I’m to scared to hold as he tries so hard to run away from me if it wasn’t for his heart, I probably would’ve found him a new home by now.

There is definitely a dip on your cresties
Dorsal. I’m not entirely sure what it could be. He could be dehydrated, mbd or FTS… Or maybe nothing.

More pics might help. Does he have issue moving or bending his tail? Or is his back hunched or slanted?
