Raptor finally tipped the scales recently at 70 grams, is 9 inches long, and I think he's still growing. :eek:

On average Crested Geckos only get to be around 50-60 grams.

And here's a few of the Dark Flame baby I won from Matt's collection (http://www.pangeareptile.com/index.htm). She recently weighed in at 43 grams. She fires up to this gorgeous dark color with a blushing throat but it never captures well on the camera. I'll have to see if I can get her to fire up during the day and take her outside to be photographed. I especially love her red dalmation spots (a rare trait).
