WHOLESALE GARGOYLE GECKO INVENTORY

• Gargoyle geckos are not a regular wholesale offering for us, per se. We usually have some, but not necessarily wholesale lots of babies at "market" price (which we are often asked for).

• I typically only offer gargoyles in varying juvenile to adult sizes on a sporadic basis throughout the year.  I generally don't offer small hatchling gargoyle geckos, due to the difficulty of determining color/pattern and the relatively small numbers we produce for our own projects.

• I work with gargoyles on more of a hobby-breeder scale - a couple hundred breeders consisting of maybe 6-8 different projects.

ABOUT GARGOYLE GECKOS

Most of our customers sell crested geckos, so I want to point out some differences here.  Care is hardly any different for gargoyle geckos than it is for crested geckos, but there are some things to note before you order a group to resell or raise up:

• House Young Gargoyles Individually
  Young gargoyle geckos are best housed individually, as younger geckos tend to be fairly competitive and can be  physically aggressive with other gargoyles.  While we do recommend housing young crested geckos of similar sizes in groups, that is not the case for gargoyles.

• Adults are Housed in Groups
  We house adults together in groups of 1 male and up to 3 females, year round.  We recommend close supervision for the first day and then they'll typically live together relatively peacefully after that.  Male gargoyles living with a female don't usually have a tail - that's pretty normal. As long as bodyweight isn't going down (indicating ongoing bullying), leave him in there - he'll be fine. 

• Gargoyle geckos seem to handle heat a bit better than crested geckos. 
  Temperatures up to 90 on the warm end of a gradient-heated enclosure are reported to work well - meaning you can raise them in ball python racks if the geckos are able to cool off at night or on the cold end of the tub.
  
  Even at hatchling size, gargoyle geckos can be safely shipped, but you still need to know what you're doing.  Care must be taken to keep them hydrated and at reasonable temperatures throughout the shipping process.  We provide a damp paper towel in the shipping cups and use cold packs when necessary.  We rarely risk using heat packs with our crested or gargoyle geckos, but I'm less hesitant to use them for gargoyles in the winter.

• Our gargoyle gecko lines are capable of reaching 100 grams or larger.
  This makes them even larger than our ridiculously large crested geckos.

• Gargoyle Gecko Tails DO Regenerate.
  Unlike crested geckos, gargoyles do regrow their tails if autotomized.  Even better, a regenerated tail will look almost indistinguishable from an original tail.  And to take all the fun out of it, gargoyle geckos are a lot less likely to drop their tails, unless another gargoyle gecko happens to bite it (gargoyle teeth are long, so that usually gets their attention).  Matter of fact, I don't think I've ever once seen a gargoyle gecko drop its tail while I was handling it. 
  
  Fun (or Gross) Fact: You almost never find a dropped gargoyle gecko tail because their cage mates almost always eat them.  I say "almost" because I did find one - and by one, I mean precisely once. lol
