<p>We are pleased to announce that we will be making a fairly local move this month.&nbsp; We have simply outgrown the apartment we are in.&nbsp; We have found a house to rent a few towns away which means more space for us and the animals.&nbsp; Of course, during this transition it is taking us a bit longer to keep in contact with everyone.&nbsp; Please bear with us during this change. Once we are settled we will be able to once again focus on getting updates done on the website.&nbsp; These updates will include the projects pictures and updated availability pages.&nbsp; We have some eggs that should be hatching in about 2-3 weeks, so that is some news to look forward to as well. </p>]]></description><guid>http://www.retributionreptiles.com/moving-on-up</guid></item><item><title>Happy New Years...</title><link>http://www.retributionreptiles.com/happy-new-years</link><pubDate>Sat, 01 Jan 2011 06:00:00 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>R.Hauser</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[<p>We would like to wish everyone a very Happy New Year and hope everyone hatches out exactly what they need/wanted. &nbsp;We have started some pairings for the 2011 season already which I'm very excited for. &nbsp;The biggest project isn't going to go until a little later on in the year though. &nbsp;The White and Yellow will be sitting on the back burner until the RAPTOR girls are big enough to breed.</p>
<p>We will be updating the site with new breeder pics to let everyone see the projects that we are working on. &nbsp;This year should be a great year for us at Retribution Reptiles. &nbsp;We will be doing shipments to every HAMM show and working on trying to produce the best examples of the morphs we work with.</p>]]></description><guid>http://www.retributionreptiles.com/happy-new-years</guid></item><item><title>Happy and Sad Day</title><link>http://www.retributionreptiles.com/happy-and-sad-day</link><pubDate>Tue, 21 Dec 2010 06:00:00 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>R.Hauser</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[<p>Well this is a sad and happy day for us at Retribution Reptiles. Our close friend Chris Smith of Palmetto Gecko has offically decided to sell his collection to be able to focus on his family. On the up side we have been honored to be the ones he has decided to take over his collection. We wanted to thank Chris for this great opportunity to work with his projects and the best of luck with the family.</p>
<p>This will expand our collection into many new and exciting directions. We will be working with proving out 1-2 possible new genetic traits after obtaining this collection. &nbsp;Again I would like to give many thanks to Chris and Kendra Smith for being such great friends. &nbsp;</p>
<p>We will be driving down to S. Carolina after the new year and staying a couple nights, then we will be bringing back the entire collection. &nbsp;This is not just a simple purchasing the geckos we will be purchasing EVERY thing he has. From racks to geckos to incubators. &nbsp;I'm very excited for this to happen not only to help expand the business but to meet a very dear friend for the first time. This will also be the first time we will get to see his beautiful baby girl Willow.</p>]]></description><guid>http://www.retributionreptiles.com/happy-and-sad-day</guid></item><item><title>White and Yellow has landed here!!!!</title><link>http://www.retributionreptiles.com/white-and-yellow-has-landed-here</link><pubDate>Thu, 02 Dec 2010 06:00:00 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>R.Hauser</dc:creator><description><![CDATA[<p>Well we have been keeping this a secret for sometime and now we are ready to let the world know that Retribution Reptiles is now working with the ever so "popular" White and Yellow morph of Leopard Gecko. &nbsp;We will be releasing more info as we unlock more about this lil wonder!!!!</p>

We finally got the incubator turned off and planning for next year on some very sweet and rare projects. &nbsp; We have worked very hard this year in providing the best of the best genetics in all of our animals. &nbsp;This year we have had the honor to be approached by some friends to get in on some really awesome projects that will expand our horizons. &nbsp;We have been able to get a pure Halloween Mask female, Albey line Tangerine Dorsal Stripe, Lavender Radar, Emerine Bells, and Raining Redstripes. &nbsp;We still have one project that we do have to keep under our hats for a while longer, but that will be revealed in the upcoming months.</p>
<p> As the title suggests, we now have the ability to process and ship orders to the Hamm Reptile Expo in Germany. We are very proud to be able to offer some of the best to the rest of the world.

<p>We had a great showing and everyone loved the new logo for Retribution Reptiles. &nbsp;We are planning very soon to have some shirts made so we can sell them to whomever would like to own one. &nbsp;We are also going to be working on a HUGE update on the site after we figure out what has been sold.</p>
<p>We are officially sold out of Pictus at this current point in time. &nbsp;Apparently we were the only vendor to have them at our table and they were a HUGE hit.</p>

<p>Well we are going into 3rd week of March and things are going as expected.&nbsp;&nbsp; Females digging, laying, not eating LOL. Tis the life of a gecko I guess. We have bred roughly 1/2 of the females we planned on breeding this year so that is a possitive note.&nbsp; I think we are sitting at about 8 clutches in the bator. We didn't get our season started until early/mid February though.&nbsp; We have had 7 Pictus babies hatch out which we are very happy for.</p>
<p>On the big news front we did pick up a pretty big group of Pictus from our good friend Chris Smith at Palmetto Gecko.&nbsp; In that we aquired some Snows, very nice Reds, a couple Xanthic, a Three stripe, and a possible Axanthic.&nbsp; We will be really working hard to figure out more of the genetics of these little guys and gals.&nbsp; Let's hope we can push some of these morphs to the forefront and really get some intrest in them.</p>
<p>Well I think that's about it for the time being so keep it real and enjoy.</p>

<p>On a more somber note we did have one of our P.Pictus geckos pass away the other night. We are unsure of what caused this but it was bitter sweet because last night we got 2 more hatchlings come out last night.  We got 1 banded and 1 striped, both are 66% het xanthic.  Unfortunatly the odds were not in our favor for this clutch to get that Xanthic.  </p>
<p>Well have a good one please keep tuned in for further updates this coming season!!!</p>
