I hope to have a huge collection one day. Iām not sure daily handling will happen with every single Crestie, Iād need to work through them over a few daysā¦ Or not breed as many but will see, theyād still get regular handling of course 
Cherry is pretty and lovely name 
I will be naming a red soft scale Lilly White (if I ever breed one) Cherry 
is it sad that I have names planned for Geckoās I havenāt produced yet!

There is nothing wrong with a life pursuit 
I mean, I only have one boa that I wouldnāt breed but I want to breed high-end quality boas. Minimum 5 years away.

Care to share a pic of your boa?
Do you have a name picked out for your goal boa?
I like to plan ahead, I canāt function without a plan

I am still able to handle them all daily so far, just takes a while! Emilyās gets involved and gets the bottom females out herself
Usually moves on to the fat tails then 
I Will say, handle the males before the females or youāre going to have horny boys wanting your hand!
Not sad at all! I still have some names saved, one of them is saved for when I get a dark female

See even before females, Haise would always āleakā on me whenever I got him out. And I mean every damn time! I hated getting the horny git out Heās a good boy now and has calmed down but my gosh!
Though when I was getting you those pics, Harold the lavender tried to grab me and was calling! I hadnāt even touched a female then either! He wanted my hand the filthy boy!
Oh the joy of male Cresties and their hormones!

Wow, is that usual for cresties? If you donāt mind my asking. Just wondering for if I do start to breed these guys. 
I havenāt had this issue thus far, but breeding hasnāt commenced for my Cresties yet. I have read that it is quite common though
Well my boa is Kai
And as I plan to produce my goal boa, I donāt have a name yet, but I am thinking of name for next one; it will be a girl. But I have no idea

Iāve held this girl so much, but she doesnāt fire up till late at night and Iāve just noticed she might actually be a Tricolour! She isnāt fully fired here and she was sold as a tricolour but I never really noticed it.
On another note, she is finally eating CGD but only if I donāt offer her bugs

You two have convinced me I need a crested gecko or three. When I get some Iāll post pictures and it will be all your faults! Seriously, you guys are awesome and your photos are awesome and your enthusiasm and the information you bring about crested geckos is stellar!

Glad to be of assistance 
canāt wait for pics what pets do you currently have?
Cresties arenāt for everyone but I love them they are great fun to have and watch.
I will start breeding my Cresties next month 
Iām so excited
Iāve had a few pains but a few tweaks and a bit of perseverance has made a difference.
For instance, this guy is a little scatty in his enclosure (great to hold though), if I go into his enclosure and his not ready he runs to the top left of his enclosure, hurting his nose on the roofā¦ So I customised a part of the roof so itās soft and he can hide his head (which is what he wanted). Took some time to do but he appreciates it.
