enigma syndrome

[rickmoss95]

:main_huh: i have heard of this neurological disorder in a couple of instances...first off i have heard that it is mostly in pure enigmas, is this true? i read that if the animal is an enigma combo(snow enigma, red eyed enigma, ect.) that they dont have the neurological disorder, is this true? i am getting some enigma combos from craig and i know he is a great person and i know he would not sell anything but top shelf animals, so i am not at all worried about the animals i am getting....as much as the babies i will produce. and if someone was to stupidly breed an enigma with the issue, would the babies be more likely to have it? i would certainly think so...but i am a rookie leo keeper(well i will be once i get them)

You will find sooooo much information here on GeckoForums regarding the Enigma! Just use the "SEARCH" function and read away.

Marcia is right, there are TONS of Enigma threads on GF, and you will get lots of info from a search. I will say though that ANY Enigma can/will/does have this "syndrome" and in fact ALL Enigmas have the propensity to display the more "strange" behavior, even combo morphs, and all will pass this down to their offspring. If you choose to work with Enigmas this is just something you have to accept as part of breeding them.

Even though you bought from a top breeder there is still a good chance that the animals will still exhibit the syndrome.
