About Grindle
Grindle is a stunning High Contrast Harlequin female acquired from MoonPhase Geckos. Her bold, high-contrast patterning — rich amber and deep charcoal tones with exceptional lateral coverage — made her a standout addition to our Harlequin breeding program.
She was paired with Wraith across the 2023, 2024, and 2025 seasons, contributing her strong Harlequin genetics and exceptional pattern quality to that pairing. Her offspring carry her distinctive high-contrast expression forward.
While we do not have names on record for Grindle's parents, her phenotype is a testament to the quality of MoonPhase Geckos' breeding program. Grindle holds a valued place in the history of Daggi's Reptiles as a cornerstone of our Harlequin group.

Genetic Traits
High Contrast Harlequin
Grindle displays the hallmark high-contrast patterning of a well-expressed Harlequin — sharp definition between her base color and pattern elements, with bold lateral coverage and minimal muddy or washed-out areas. This clarity of pattern is a key trait passed to her offspring.
Amber / Charcoal Coloration
Grindle's warm amber base paired with deep charcoal patterning gives her a striking and dramatic appearance. This color combination is highly desirable in the Harlequin morph and contributes to the visual impact of her offspring when paired with complementary males.
MoonPhase Geckos Line
Grindle comes from MoonPhase Geckos, a respected crested gecko breeding program known for producing animals with exceptional pattern quality and color saturation. Her lineage through MoonPhase contributes strong Harlequin genetics to our breeding program.
