Thanks. I don't buy live things from pet stores anymore, with the exception of feeders. In fact, other than live insects and cork bark, I don't buy anything from pet shops. Well, I buy Rep-Cal from pet shops, but other than that.....

Doesn't $250 seem like a lot for a gecko, not matter what the sex or color? I would never pay even half that much for one lizard.

:Anywhere from $35-250, depending on color and sex. Shipping is usually around $15-25, but I would not recommend having any animals shipped until the spring. It is not worth the risk during the winter no matter how experienced the breeder is at doing it. Babies can not be sexed until a few months of age, with the most accuracy around 6-10 months esp for females (males can be late bloomers). Expect to pay top dollar for females to. I def recommend getting one from the shows instead of a pet store. Good Luck!
