The two piccys above are off our Afghanicus Leopard Geckos(Eublepharis Macularius Afghanicus) that we imported from PACHERP USA via the Hamm show last September (2010). Whilst not obvious from the pictures the Afghanicus sub species are the mini-minors of the Leopard Gecko species. Average adult length is 6 inch (150mm)compared to 8- 10 inch (200 - 250mm) for the more commom Macularis Macularius varieties. The pictures were taken 25/12/2010 when Kabul the male (upper) was 39 grams while Sangin (the female (lower) was 38 gram. So all in all at these weights they are now well into adulthood and probably only a few grams from maximum size which makes them definite goers for breeding in 2011. We also have a few more normal girl friends for the male including a wild caught bloodline Macularius Macularius to see what we might get. Fingers crossed for some interesting offspring.
