Gamble is a feisty little girl. I purchased her from Evergreen Reptiles on 9/25/04. She hatched on 7/27/04.
Gamble is pretty tiny. She's very feisty, though. I saw her when I went to the Unique
Animal Expo in Fall of '04, and I couldn't resist. She ended up with me on the bus home. The second day of the expo,
I couldn't stop myself from going back and picking up her half-sister, Runtly. She's what I'd call 'almost'
speckled. She's also possibly het for Tremper albino, blizzard, and jungle (she is banded). She has a bit of a yellow
hue in between the light lavender stripes.
This first set of photos (including the one above) was taken on 11/16/05, when she was 42g.

Gamble used to throw fits whenever you tried to hold her. She wasn't nearly as bad as Rasputin, and it was kind of hilarious
to watch a wee bebe throw that kind of fit. She was the first leopard gecko that I ever heard make noise ("squee").
She's mellowed out a lot since then. She was pretty daring when she was little- she took on a big hornworm when she was
only a few months old (and succeeded!). These days, she's rooming with Nimbus. She would clearly rather live by herself,
but they get along alright. I might breed her at some point, but right now, I just don't have the room to house her individually
(and I will only house one breeding female in an enclosure, so I can keep track of who laid which eggs).
**10/07 update** Nimbus was hogging the humid hide in their tank, so with my newest setup revamp, I set up Gamble in her
own 10 gallon.
