Phantom is a tangerine TUG snow tremper albino.

The first offspring doesnt look like a tug snow, so i would say: tangerine het tremper 50% het eclipse from emerine and redstripe lineage.

The middle offspring looks like it could be TUG snow, So i would say: tangerine TUG snow het tremper 50% het eclipse from redstripe and emerine lineage

The last offspring looks the most TUG snow like. It would also be Tang TUG snow het tremper 50% het eclipse with emerine/ redstripe lineage

That seems like an amazing analysis, I have never heard of a tang snow before, could you explain that to me ?

Are you saying they are basically all tangs (appearance)?

IF you have time.
How do you think there colors will develop ?

How can you tell that they are or not TUG snows ?

I see some green on the last one, you dont think any emerine is there ?

im assuming you got your Phantom from The Urban Gecko?
The Phantom was produced by breeding TUG snows to Sunglows, then back to each other...

I dont think you can call any of these offspring Emerine, but it would be fair to explain the Emerine lineage to anyone who would inquire...

Yea I did, could you explain what the difference in looks of the just tangerine and the one you think looks like a tug snow, and with this difference how does it effect the gecko. colors, breeding ect

Sorry I am just trying to understand what I see, really appreciate it.

Also about the emerine, tremper I think noted the lavender would turn green and it usually take 30-45 days to turn green, so could they still be and just not developed yet, or is there another characteristic that you see shows they wont develop into that ?

TUG snow is dominate, therefore one allele of the TUG snow mutation would produce a TUG snow. TUG snow (and all snows for that matter) are a form of Axanthism. An axanthic, theoretically, should have no yellow pigmentation; but it is more realistic to say "reduced" yellow pigmentation. When this is mixed with the polygenic trait of tangerine you get a more subdued and pastel colored gecko.

As far as the green colors go, i really have no idea as i have never owned an emerine or looked thoroughly into there background. i think you could end up getting some hues of green, but after the cross with the tug line of tangerine that the Phantom comes from i doubt you will end up with anything that is resoundingly green. But most emerald/emerine are hardly green in the first place.

These geckos are very nice and should mature into some awesome geckos. they come from two very strong lines and will make great breeders. I think if you were to breed these geckos to something from a Raptor line you could produce some magnificant striped albinos...
