Here's the het Bell version of my BSBs...

The best thing about these two Black Spots is they're both female!

I am very excited about this project and am so happy to have a good group! All together I have:

1.0 Mack Snow BSB
2.2 BSB
0.3 BS het Bell
0.1 "Special Mom"

I don't call the mother a BSB because she doesn't have the spotting and has normal eyes. I originally thought the spotting came from the father and that these were just the Speckled morph that comes out of the Mack Snows. However, the spotting on the BSBs and BSs for that matter is not as extreme as the Speckleds where most of the tubercles are affected. The spotting is identical to the Enigmas and since mom came from... Well yeah, that's why I think it comes from the mother... :main_evilgrin: The guy in my avatar just happens to be expressing both traits. :main_yes: The rest of my BSBs look like the two pictured above, but as Albinos.

I second that!
Great looking girls and again best of luck!
Black spotted bells would look really cool.

Can you show me a pic of an Enigma that has spotting like that???
Maybe I am just not seeing what you are seeing...

Any Enigma I have ever seen, including the one I am getting, does not have spotting like that... Infact, the one I am getting has almost no spotting at all...

The spotting on your animals looks pretty typical to that of alot of Bells... I am not seeing anything that would link your leos (as beautiful as they are) to Enigmas...

Please help me see what you are seeing... I am starting to feel left out here!!!:main_robin:

I'm not seeing it either. Maybe you can show us a pic of your geckos next to an enigma with the same spotting? that might make it easier to understand.
Those geckos are very nice!

I did not find anything exact but a few that were very close...

Anyway, when I start producing enigmas, I will cut you a good deal... That will take out all of the guess work...LOL

You do see what I'm talking about though so that's good.

I still have a good feeling Enigmas will be the outcome from these guys and if not maybe I'll take your offer... :main_thumbsup:

EDIT: Oh you were talking about Bells right?

EDIT 2: If your Enigma is the one with GM buy it... Great choice! That was one of my favorites.

Thank Patrik!

The last 06 hatchlings from this project are starting to show their spots so I'll post them soon. The Albino was so light at hatching I thought it was a Snow Bell. She is still faded and has the weirdest eyes in the bunch. They have a typical Bell color, but lack all of the usual patterning. They're basically solid faded pink with just the iris/pupil.
