Super Giant Super Snow: Is it Possible?

I would like to breed for super giant super snows in the future but I am a bit confused. I recently read a comment from a top breeder that a Super giant Super snow is not possible. If both are recessive genes than it should be easy to produce. Please reply with an explanation on why it is or is not possible.

Here is my understanding, correct me if wrong: to get a super giant both parents must be giant (25% chance super giant offspring) or one parent a super giant and the other giant (50% super giant offspring) or both be super giant( 100% super giant offspring)

To my knowledge the giant gene is completely independent of all other genes so in theory it could pair with snows to produce a super giant super snow. Am I correct?

Thank you.

Thank you. I found it odd too. Another website said Mack snows "giant size" is not really related to the giant gene..... Just trying to get a solid understanding.

That website might just be trying to say that a big gecko isn't always a giant. There are geckos over 100 grams that are not genetically giants. Quite a lot of them now a days actually.

Giant and Mack Snow are both incomplete (Co) Dominant genes. They both have a super form. Neither of those genes inhibit the other from working.
So whoever told you that is completely wrong.
