Some Gucci Mane glamour shots

Postby Rhianimal » Thu Sep 12, 2013 3:59 pm

It was a nice day so I took him out on the deck for some sunshine. Here are some pictures I took. He was pretty surprised by the outside at first, but calmed down soon.

Too late for the color contest!

Grumpy looking lizard if I ever saw one.

And for fun... does Gucci look like a lady? That came into question before.

Gucci's colors just look neat right now. Shed is coming soon and both halves look different.

We haven't seen Gucci Mane for a while! She, I think, looks terrific!

He is pretty fancy, thank you. His little nose scale always stands out.

You think Merauke? When I asked here I got mostly Indonesian, but a few people mentioned Merauke. His color is pretty different for either like some weird in-betweener.

From looking at his head scales, I also think that he is a Merauke.

Yeah, he has PERFECT Merauke scales. His pattern is a bit off, but nothing too major.

I would in no doubt call him a Merauke. Looks nothing like an Indo.

I will post some shed pictures for sure. Here's one from after the last shedding

As you can see, right now Gucci has lost most of that yellow and isn't looking that light at all. And that shine!

When I first got Gucci and started posting, I had a number of Indo ID suggestions. It seemed like merauke with a different color and now I have found some that look very nearly identical to Gucci. There are so many different lizards out there!

Not all Meraukes have the traditional 1 stripe down the neck. If you look at the thread "Blame This on Susann!" one of the skinks have 3 stripes down the neck like this one, and it was CBB from pure Meraukes.

I compared Gucci Mane to the rapper...

Cannot unsee the ice cream-like markings. I laughed.

I think Gucci Mane looks better than Gucci Mane.

Hmmm... My opinion is still female Indo.
And, to be fair (about Dakota's comment on the thread "Blame This on Susann!"), the babies produced by me (pictured in that thread) have indeed been CBB, but I don't think we can call the parents that produced them PURE Merauke since they are wild caught. I mean, if we're to be technical here. Are they Merauke? Yes. Can I say that they are PURE Merauke? No, since I have no way of telling what's in their genetic mix.

looks very girly to me as well,a nice looking one at that

susann ,most that come in are true to there wild counterparts,i dont think many at all would breed at the holding compounds,farm raised is just sugar coating for nabbed from the wild gravid females

they house so many together in cramped housing,there probably way to stressed to bother mating,plus its only a small window when they would breed,i think wild caughts are consistantly more reliable to be what they are compared to captive breds,as alot of advertisers when they show parentage show different species ect

id be confident your guys are pure meraukes,but it is true,you never really know 100 percent
