Emeralds/ Emerines hactlings??????????

We have just hatched out our first two hatchlings from our Emerald group. The first one is a Giant Reverse Stripe Tremper Emerine. We were really happy because the male and female from this hatchling were not known to be het Tremper until this girl popped out.

My question was on the next hatchling. Does anyone know how to separate the Emeralds from the het Emeralds at a young age? We can't tell right now.
This hatchling came from our Giant male Emerald het Tremper x female Red Stripe Reverse Stripe het Emerald. She looks more jungle than red or reverse stripe though. Any replies are appricated.

Here are pics of the two...

From Ron's websight he says emerald x emerald= all emeralds. Is that what you bred together? Marie is working on this too-she's showed some of her emeralds on the "show your leo" board. I can't see the difference either, but she said the same thing about the outcomes. Maybe as the age you can tell? As babies they all look like normal jungles, stripes to me.

Ron said 30-40 days before the Emeralds will start to show their ture colors. I am still unsure how you can have a het Emerine unless it's a "Co-Dom/Dom" trait or recessive but I was told it worked simialr to the Hypo trait. But with it still being such a new morph there could be a lot of unknown's we will have to see what the outcomes in the future will start to look like. I see potential for the Emerines for sure.JMO

I love the second one. I love geckos with bold black markings.

Basically I would not consider any gecko an Emerald/Emerine, until you see it displaying those colors.

To the best of my knowledge colors are linebred in Leos. Tang X Tang produces some better Tangs, and some not so good "Tangs". I expect this to be no different. Just my opinion.
