Hey Guys!

I need your help! Does anyone have a picture of a Blizzard Engima? I needed one because I have a blizzard that I think is enigma.

I'll show you why ;)

Her mother is a Hypo Line Enigma het Tremper Albino het Blizzard

Her father is a Tremper Enigma het Blizzard (son of the Hypo Line Enigma)

Breeding this two we have:

3.125% Enigma (2 Copy) Blizzard het Tremper Albino
6.25% Enigma (2 Copy) het Tremper Albino het Blizzard
6.25% Enigma (1 Copy) Blizzard het Tremper Albino
12.5% Enigma (1 Copy) het Tremper Albino het Blizzard
6.25% Enigma (2 Copy) het Blizzard
6.25% Enigma (1 Copy) Blizzard
12.5% Enigma (1 Copy) het Blizzard
3.125% Enigma (2 Copy) het Tremper Albino
6.25% Enigma (1 Copy) het Tremper Albino
3.125% Enigma (2 Copy)
6.25% Enigma (1 Copy)
3.125% Blizzard het Tremper Albino
6.25% Normal het Tremper Albino het Blizzard
3.125% Blizzard
6.25% Normal het Blizzard
3.125% Normal het Tremper Albino
3.125% Normal
3.125% Blizzard Enigma (2 Copy)

and then

Blizzard enigma - 18.75%
Blizzard - 6.25%
Enigma - 56.250%
Normal - 18.75%

She is clearly not a regular enigma nor a normal, now I don't know if she is a Blizzard or a Blizzard Enigma

Now Pictures:

She is about 3 months and 30g.

Thanks!

That's a tough one. Most Enigmas have white tails but Blizzards do also. Watch closely for any signs of Enigma syndrome. If it doesn't show any signs after a while I would say it's a Blizzard. But if it does the star starring or any other enigma problem I would say Blizzard Enigma.

What is really tough about this is that some enigmas will never show any signs of the syndrome. I guess you could breed your blizzard to a non enigma and then if you pop out enigmas, then you got yourself a blizzard enigma

Kind of rare, I haven't seen many out there, even though it only takes 2 years to produce if you start with a Blizzard and an Enigma.

I say regular Blizzard... You can't determine a gecko is an Enigma because it has 'Enigma syndrome'... I have had couple geckos that circled and they were definitely not Enigmas... I also have a Blizzard Enigma that acts totally normal... Anyways, I believe yours is a regular Blizzard because it lacks the Enigma head structure...

The only way to find out will be to test breed. You can't visually identify the "white gecko" enigmas.

On another note, crossing engimas is generally a bad idea. It's been documented that Enigma X Enigma generates a larger percentage of offspring that exhibit the syndrome and/or have a general failure to thrive. As the enigma gene is Dominant, there is no reason to cross enigmas to each other.
