the colors are actually almost identical on the 2, only the pinner has much less cream. I'll post a pic of them both fired up side by side.

A few side by side comparison shots:
(I had to stick them in a deli cup to get them in the same shot, squirmy little buggers!)

There Really Cute!!
Do you keep them on bark even as babys? I only keep my adults on it... If you do have you ever had probs? I might do that instead of papertowls...

P.S. To anyone who reads this post I don't want to start a big controversy of opinions over what substrate to or not to use... thank you, i'm not directing this to anyone its just general!

Yes, I do keep them on bark at that size, and coco soft when they're smaller. Actually, and here comes the ridicule, I keep them w/ similar sized fat tailed geckos. I know, disease, stress, etc, etc.... Well, been doing it for months w/o any side effects. The cresteds sleep in the plants and the fatties sleep under cork bark. So far everyone is fat and happy and still have their tails.
may the chastisement begin:
 
RRRAAAAWWWWWWRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hahah, just kidding :p
since cresties live in the upper areas, and fatties live in the lower and they wouldn't disturb eachother... only thing i'd see wrong with that is that both species live in different types of environments... how do you mist the cresties as much as they need without keeping the fat tails habitat too moist and humid?
(Not attacking you here :p just curious)

Cool Thanks for the info!
Interresting tests too... PRoves that SOME gecko in CERTAIN conditions at a CERTAIN age CAN be kept together... Many people may find that accualy helpfull!!
I'll probably start my babies on paper towels then move to bark at 4-5 months...

Fat tails actually love a really humid nest box, so as long as they're not wet they're fine. I acheive the conditions I have by only misting the gecko it's self and by using live plants. It's probably slightly on the dry side for the cresteds, but they're a very resillient species. when it's gotten too dry I've found the cresteds curled up in the nest box w/ the fat tails.

That first one is truly nice.

As it is there would it then be called a partial pinstribe harley? :D - Or what would be right to call it? :)

. o O ( I know it is quite small but just as it is! )

If you want to get super technical it's a partial pinstripe tri color blonde extreme harlequin. I just call it an extreme harly. You can call it whatever you want, but thanks for all the compliments!
