Nice. Just a shot in the dark, as I don't know these geckos very well, but I'm guessing Cameroon Highlands, kureowae and orientalis? I'm sure I butchered the Latin on the Goni's. Nice babies!

1. im curious how you can see from the picture that this is Cameron Highlands stock?
2. the right scientific name is is G. kuroiwae
3. its not orientalis, but splendens

Brian: are these all new-born? Its interesting to see the size difference between cat gecko and cave gecko

the variation of pattern led to my guess of Cameroon Highlands, and again, it was just a guess

Hi Brian

Very beautiful Geckos! They look all alive and well.
The first picture is a perfect shot, good work!

great pics and congrats on the new babies they look good

They are approximately all born within a two week period.

Some of the size differences might be temporary. I've noticed that each year my females give larger eggs the second or third year. My luii eggs while fewer this year are massive until the third clutch. The head is of a G. araneus. Very hard to guess that one. Came out ready to shed within an hour.

The Cat Geckos are Highland ones, but I would guess that too simply because of probability. Came from a fiesty female from Marcus. Right they are splendens.

Probably won't have a lot of pics because I've lost my camera.

That was also part of my hypothesis. Also highlands animals tend to be very highly patterned, especially as captive breds. I remember about 15 years ago when all that came in was unmarked ones, very plain in color and pattern.

Nice baby's

First picture: the head looks almost bigger then the egg.. it's funny to see how they fit into those eggs sometimes
