I'm intrigued...

If they were albinos, Tremper at least, the snake eye part would be ruby red right? What's with the Bell looking eyes? Me likey...

Btw a couple years ago he had a ''het eclipse'' for sale which looked just like them... It was taken down after a few days, but I still have the pics... ;)

Edit: Took too long to type... The old thread was bumped while I was posting... LOL...

Quite like it ;) so there non albino paradox eyed leo's so red vaining so now we have normal eyes,false eclipse eyes gene,eclipse eyes gene,and paradox eyes gene.That is't going to be fun when this eye trait is bred into blizzard & M_patternless as we use red vaining to help tell a blizzard & patternless from a albino blizzard & albino patternless.So with this new paradox eye gene a very pinkish blizzard will look much like a albino blizzard :D .I do think this paradox eye trait sould be turn as fare away from eclipse eye trait as IMO it will be at it's best on normal leo eyes for full impact if possible.So is this eye trait came from RAPTOR/eclipse'etc it's possible some of us may have it in are breeding stock ??.

Gazz you are correct there. It will make for some confusing projects for sure. I would have to think that if they came from those genetics Raptor/Eclipse you would have a chance to reproduce the morph as well if you are working with some of the Orignal genetics.

not neccesarily, it could be an effect of incubation temps, or maybe partial interruption of the albino genes effects...we are getting into some impossibly complex areas here...I too have noticed the occaisional hypo-esque gecko from the (R)aptor project--roughly a third of my hatchlings looked alot like this when I bred My SS male to sunglows het Raptor--almost fasciolatus-like
