im currently in the process of breeding a couple of my geckos

ive been succesful in the past with my carrot tail and a normal morph

so i wanted to mix stuff up abit
would anyone know what i would get form the chocolate and the carrot tail ? incubated at about 76 F ?

Anyone bred chocolates before on here ? (there must be someone)

the carrot tail is heterozygous, either that or the normal gene is dominant .. not sure ? cause the babies he has produced are both normal
Then normal one looks pretty standard green and yellow band with black spots sold as a 'normal leopard gecko'

I hope you made a typo and are incubating at 86 and not at 76. By chocolate, do you mean dark tremper albino?

For the most part, carrot tail is not dominant/recessive but polygenetic, meaning that for all practical purposes, if you breed 2 carrot tails together you're likely to get more carrottails and if you breed a carrot tail to a non-carrot tail you'll probably get a range from carrot tail to nothing. If the chocolate is indeed a dark tremper, you will get normal looking babies who are all het for tremper. If you breed the babies back to the chocolate parent, you will get some albinos. I hope that answers your questions.
