Default 600th Coleonyx e. elegans baby

Hi!
I just had a little C. elegans anniversary.
The last baby from the last egg from 2007 hatched yesterday.
It was the end of my 10th elegans breeding season.
And when I added up all the numbers, I surprisingly found out, that this was exactly the 600th elegans baby that I produced since I first bred them in 1998.

I'll post a few pics later.

Regards, Matjaz

As few people ever breed a species on such a consistent level, great job done! But what did you do with all these geckos? I mean i have already problems to sell 5 or 6 specimens of certain species...

This is a very beautiful species and also one of the easiest to keep.
People seem to like them.
I like to believe most of my babies are still living, breeding and doing well all around Europe, US, Canada, Japan, Hong Kong and probably somewhere else as well.

Congrats on your continued success. That is quite the accomplishment, considering I haven't hatched out my first 600 geckos yet...I'm working on it though

CONGRATULATIONS, Matjaz! 10 years and 600 babies is a great accomplishment, and your geckos are the loveliest I have ever seen.
