True Mt. Dore

[Debbie]

We got 2 new Rhacodactylus leachianus from the region of Mt. Dore.
We are absolutely thrilled to have them.
There are only 3-4 people besides us who keeps this locale.
There have been rumors about the Friedel line Mt. Koghis being Mt. Dore, but we talked to Willi Henkel about this and the Friedel line Mt. Koghis were also found on Mt. Koghis, just lower on the mountain.
These are actual Mt. Dore, the grandparents were WC by Joachim Sameit and Willi Henkel.

Hey Debbie ~

:yahoo: for sharing these special leachies. They are quite photogenic! :banana:

Are they a 1.1?

 

[Debbie]

They look like 2.0, but we hope that the bigger has got pseudo pores. Since the pores of the smaller one are more obvious.

Any chance we could get pics of the parents? And if they both turn out to be boys, and you need to get rid of one... I'm sure most of us would go crazy to have one. lol. Also, if I am looking at it correctly, Mt. Koghis is actually within Mont-Dore, at the north eastern point of the "commune".

 

[Debbie]

We have pictures of the parents, but they are not ours to share.

 

[mikew1234]

Can you compare them to another locale then? Are they solid colors like Yate etc, or more like the Mt Koghis? Or an entirely different look?

 

[Debbie]

When adult they are green with lost of white. Ours are already looking different from the other leachianus we keep. They have a lime green hue when fired down, really pretty.

 

[Debbie]

Both of them turned out to be male.
Fortunately we were lucky enough, with some help form a friend, to trade one of the males for a female.

 

[Debbie]

Fired up.

 

[Ceinfrynstud]

Very nice

 

[Debbie]

So far the male is growing nicely. We hope to be able to pair them up at the end of next year.
