Banded From Striped Parents?

[Albey]

I have always been under the impression that the Stripe on a Fat-tail was a Recessive trait and that Striped Parents always threw Striped babies. Well evidently that is not the case as this little guy just hatched out this morning from two Striped Parents. Weird huh? He is a cute little bugger though isn’t he?:main_yes:

I guess if Stripe can be a Recessive trait Banded could be also. In this case the pair were visual Stripes but were also Het for Banded and that is what came out. Live and learn. :main_robin:

Oh wow...I was under the same impression you were! It is a beautiful little one though...very healthy looking.

 

[Leopard.Geckerz]

Beautiful baby none the less! I guess you just never know.

[Nigel4less]

Very interesting, Albey! But a gorgeous bugger none-the-less.

Every one of my breeders are Striped and I only have one Male. Maybe one of my Leopard Geckos decided to go for some outside action.

What a cute little fatty!!! Albey, I have crossed Bold Stripe x Bold Stripe (which some think is recessive) and produced normally banded offspring as well.

Every one of my breeders are Striped and I only have one Male. Maybe one of my Leopard Geckos decided to go for some outside action.

So there is a 'fence-jumper' in your yard, lol!
