any thoughts?

Alright, not sure if this is in the right place, but here goes.

I picked this guy up from Rick (sport88) the other day. Rick told me that the guy that had him before Rick had him in a large enclosure with several other geckos, including males. So he's a little battle scarred on the head (as you can see). Notice he has very little crests on his head, but a nice thick area on his 'shoulders'? I'm wondering if maybe he did have some nice crests on his head at one point but they got 'chewed' off in battles? Any thoughts on this? I'll try to get some better pics tonight to show his head 'structure' a little better. I looked at it earlier and it seems possible...but he quickly cut short his handling time by pooing on me :roll:

He definitely looks like he's been nibbled on.

I'm thinking he had really nice full head crests before he was pt in with the other males.

He's a cutie, though!!

I'm glad you're giving him a nice safe Forever Home!!

That's what I'm thinking. We'll see of he produces anything interesting. If not, oh well...he's a sweetie lol

Absolutely,  My original male looks like this. Years of breeding scares.  He actually looks like a sara. at this point.

Thanks!

Hey Steve, do you by any chance have before and after pics of that male?

I think that's just what God gave him. Here in Western Canada, Land of not so gorgeous looking and completely structureless geckos I've seen many like him. That's not to say he hasn't been a bit chewed, but I think the crests could easily be just like that on their own.

After.  I have to search for before

Let me know. Would love to see the comparison.
