ENDS PROMPTLY JULY 11 @ 11:59 PM PACIFIC
I literally just decided Monday evening what we're going to do for the 4th of July, which really snuck up on me. This ended up being a big one in terms of promotions, so we'll do this all the way through the weekend and up until next Friday, which is July 11, just to make sure everyone can take advantage. At these prices (not just on individuals, but wholesale pricing is bonkers), I can only afford to do this for the 11 days I've set aside. Once it's over, it's over...I'm extending it ahead of time (11 days instead of the 7 days I was going to do).

ABOUT ACR GARGOYLE GECKOS
While we don't produce as many gargoyle geckos as we do cresteds, we still hatch quite a few and our lineages have been in development just as many decades (all two of them - lol). Like our crested geckos, our gargoyles have been bred to get large because I've followed the same principles of constant outcrossing while also breeding for a specific appearance.
Most of our modern generation gargoyles top out at anywhere from 90-100+ grams by 5 years of age (though most will breed before two years old) and they look just as flashy as they are large. I don't know what was huge 20 years ago, but 50 grams was about all we came to expect from a strong line.
While Gargoyles have historically lacked the fame and popularity that crested geckos have attained, gargoyle gecko pattern and color morphs have turned out far better and more extreme than I ever anticipated. As the reptile hobby continues to go more mainstream and more hard core reptile breeders look for new or alternative species to develop new projects with, I think we're going to see the gargoyle gecok step out of its famous cousin's shadow and get some of the limelight over the next several years.
