If only I knew you last year! I had tigers from big mama and Kaneki, literally popping them out for a few years
Theyāre not together now so doubt Iāll get them again
Always the blooming way! Thatās like with holdbacks. Turn out male when I want them to be females, KJ stayed regardless but Pod will be going. Itās bloody gutting! I sex all babies before they leave and try hold back the ones I want but when I checked last few they were males
This time I actually want red males and I bet theyāll be all females!
He is cool.
I purchased so many possible females and all turned male, whereas my brindle was an unknown and turned female lol
I like to purchase baby cresties because I love to watch them grow, but itās a pain when you end up with majority males! At one point I had 1 female and 6 males!
Itās a nightmare, some people canāt say for sure or donāt like to, and thatās the problem. Iāve asked on numerous occasions but as couldnāt be told exact sex I didnāt bother.
I donāt usually go for babies unless ones I think I wonāt find again! But the other half a couple months back brought 2 babies from. Breeder, but as were from Phoenix and Splodge (if you know those well known boys, the woman ended up with them both the lucky girl haha) we didnāt mind the sex or that were tiny! I think the extreme tri is male and the Red (touch wood) Harley is female.
But I loupe everyone now, babies can take a while to get to stay still but atleast I know what everyone is!
Also saves me from being sad when my āfavsā donāt turn out what Iād like Now I try not to get too attached until I loupe, but I mean, itās hard not too. Theyāre all blooming adorable with their tiny faces smiling at you
I believe I know what breeder you are talking about and both fudge and cinnamon came from her both mine were possible females but turned male⦠But I buy what I like and hope for the best
I know what you mean⦠Making the decision as to who stays and who goes is hard, I will probably be selling a male off but Iām waiting to see what my babies turn out to be as to who will go. Iāve tried loop sexing them, but Iām not set in stone with what they are as I did it when they were 3-6g so I might be wrong
Iāve successfully loop sexed a few so Iām fairly confident.
Ooh no way! EG?
Ah blooming pain! She didnāt sex these, she didnāt want to let them go, but eventually said yes to the other half as he wanted them haha She also said to him about swapping holdbacks end of year so we can add other Tri lines to our projects and they can have new lineage from the US from us, sheās lovely, even offered me to borrow her male next year if I canāt find one next year I like for Akiras next breeding season, so I offered the same in return with my boys.
Touch wood youāre right! But just keep checking, I checked Pod at 5G and said male, the other half couldnāt see anything then weeks later, bam. Balls.
So now I just do the looping haha.
Itās quite fun I think too knowing what they are.
Looking forward to these here hatching. I might try sex the babies here tomorrow then see if Iām right in a months time! Touch wood the ones I love are the sex Iād like them to be⦠Then again Iāll probably keep either way⦠I mean KJ stayed as I just loved him too much to let him goā¦
Yep EG I got my 2 before she did loop sexing anyway, had them few weeks and then when I looped them, pores, a few more weeks and the balls dropped too lol
Thatās cool about the holdbacks etc
I love all my Cresties regardless of sex, which is why my decision will be hard!
Any way, any one got some more pics? Here is a pic of my newest Crestieā¦a soft scale, I have no idea what colour this crestie will be, I was hoping for Lavender but Iām convinced it wonāt be. Either way, itās still cute still to be named, but I thought Iād wait to see on colour first.
Yet still so cute I love these kind of pics.
Pod being pod in a pod which is why heās called pod!
Heās actually up for sale but I can still appreciate his beauty. Although probably shouldnāt of named him as itās made it all the more harder⦠And the fact heās spit of his father! But I have his dad and brother so I need to let him flyā¦
But Here he is being a pod and on an acer tree too because why not!
His super cute, if only he was a she
Oh I had hoped he was a she I tell you! But by 3g he had noticeable pores⦠Most of the tris from the pairing were actually male other than a couple females, a friend actually has a male from them also!
Where as I swear when Big Mama is in the mix most babies have ended up female! When she was with Kaneki only ever had a few males over the 3 years, And now with spike, females so far (unsure about new 2) So having to let one of the dals with red spots go too as Iām overloaded with girls!
But I bet the one pairing Iām hoping for a male like mum from will all be girls
Typical Cresties!
Hopefully the gecko gods are on your side
Here is a pic of my hopefully female Crestie (fired & unfired), I have a male already planned for her
Would love to see some more Cresties if anyone has any they would like to show?
Hopefully? Have you looped?
Yep, no pores yet I will loop again in a few months or so too
We have 1. And heās a little doucher. So angry. bites me almost every time I take him out. Heās about 1 year old now
Does he think your food? Or if it just leave me alone
Yeah itās all good response. I donāt hold it against him because he was tiny when we got him.
Theyāre funny when theyāre angry, itās the chirping! I actually got a nip from one of our nearly 5 months old yesterday! I moved my thumb and think she thought it was food and bit. I was like excuse me no!
