Hello!

I've been doing loads of research on getting myself one or two of these lovely geckos. I've worked out all the stuff I will need and where to get it now the only thing left is the animal its-self. Here's what I'm after...

I want a super high coloured red patternless/bi-colour Crested Gecko. (If any of you have been on Pangea website and seen the red project you should get an idea) I've been looking at all the morphs and this is the one that I like the most, the patternless bright colours!

Does anyone know the price range of Red cresties? I would prefer a juvvie so I can watch it grow up and all.

I was assuming ScottW would be able to tell me since he sells loads of them and runs the captivebred website?

well reds are still quite rare in the UK so u will have to pay a premium for them, Id probably expect to pay anything over £60 for a good quality hatchling red. Obviously you may fall lucky and get one cheaper.

Another problem is that reds tend to develop their colour as they get older (as nearly all cresties do) so if you want something that u know for sure is going to be a good red you will be looking at a big juvie which always tend to cost more than hatchlings. You cud be looking at upwards of £100 for a good looking red thats already showing its colours, even more if you want a female.

I sold my red group for around £500 this comprised of 1.3 adults.Babies should fetch around 60-75 pounds each although I sold most of my babies in groups for alot less.Here's a few pics of the adults and babies.
