History
This is one of the first morphs recognized in crested geckos that was different from the initial wild collected animals. As stated in The Rhacodactylus, “we did not find a single representative of the ‘fire’ morph in the wild… The first wild-collected ‘fire’ pattered crested geckos appeared on the U.S. market in late 1995.”.
Appearance
Body
Flame crested geckos will have a base colour with a lighter colour along the dorsal. Flames will show little to no pattern on their laterals or limbs.
Flames display one base color and one color on the dorsum. The dorsum strip is broken by the base color.
The morph is defined by pattern color on the dorsum and subtle patterning color on the limbs and laterals. The pattern color ranges from white to orange with intermediate colors.
