breeding question

[m&mreptiles]

I am new to leopard gecko breeding. i need someone to tell me what is an ideal weight for them to start.
thanks m&mreptiles

 

[geckofreak23]

45 grams and up is what i like.

I like to shoot for 55 grams, to give them a little extra for after they lay eggs. What morphs will you be breeding?

thanks guys. i will be breeding a female rainwater albino and a male Murphy albino patternless

 

[JordanAng420]

You are welcome. Your Patternless Albino is the Rainwater strain, correct? You definitely do NOT want to cross albino strains. Only Rainwater x Rainwater (or Tremper x Tremper/ Bell x Bell)

I don't mean to be nosy, I just want you to start off in the right direction.

what do you mean by that. the male is actually a rainwater albino patternless. the breeder i got them from said they will be able to breed together. any further advice will be appreciated.thanks

If you breed albinos of different strains, you don't get more albinos. You get normals that are carrying the genes for both albino strains. By breeding your two, you will get rainwater albinos that are heterozygous for Murphy's patternless. You will not see the patternless gene visibly.

You're breeding without even knowing for sure? You should acquaint yourself more with learning before breeding.
