Eye Color

[RAZERWIREREPTILES]

Quick question... This is my first year working with the raptor morph I have gotten 3 nice...... I think the proper term for them is APTOR het raptor= Raptor X Tramper jungel het rrs please correct me if i am wrong... they all came out looking great nice bright yellow/orange patty but what is throwing me off is the eye color both parents were tremper albino strain and from what i have seen of the trempers i have, they tend to have the golden color eye but thies hatchling have black/silver eye all 3 do is this norm? if not what could cause this black/silver to come out in a albino all are females incubated at 79 f for roughly 2 months to the lay date

I would just say A.P.T.O.R., het R.A.P.T.O.R., or R.A.P.T.O.R. just which ever they are.

You know I couldn’t answer this, it sounds like from your description that you got eclipse geckos from A.P.T.O.R., het R.A.P.T.O.R. x A.P.T.O.R., het R.A.P.T.O.R. Some should have the eclipse eye gene, but the eye should be red, not black, due to the albino gene. Maybe posting pics would help.

Sorry for the confusion on the Proper name part i ment does
Raptor X Tramper jungel het rrs = A.P.T.O.R het R.A.P.T.O.R?

as far as pics go il will work on that today my only prob is i have never ben abnle to do one of those super eye shot i have not clue how to focus in that cloas sry but the ones i do have show the color nicley

Ok got everything working hope this helps here are the pics

now the blood line in thies 3 are

Father- R.A.P.T.O.R. 2 SOLID RED EYE
MOTHER- TREMPER JUNGLE HET RRS

So this this should make thies little ones APTOR het RAPTOR? correct? and if so how are there eyes that blakc/silver color

 

[godzillizard]

That's usually how they look when you incubate them that low. As always, some are genetically lighter, and some are genetically darker. My Raptor male has eyes that appear black--like red food coloring (when its in the bottle)

Hmmmm thanks maybe its like the black pigmentation that tends to set in at lower incubation temps nice thought thank for the info

 

[syntheticreality]

I would say it was your incubation temp, the same thing happened to me. I myself hatched out two albino's, one a rsa and the other came out jungle. Neither of them have the albino eye like their sibling who was my first clutch because of the temp i incubated them at. They both have the 'grey' eye you're talking about.

Very nice baby!

 

[RAZERWIREREPTILES]

Cool thanks for the info still makes me wounder why an albino would be able to produce the black pigments. Just seems odd to me but that prob because i have not had many albino hatchlings in the past learn something new everyday. Thanks again all for the help.

Oh and sry if there is any confusion Brad.a.c thats not just 1 baby it is 3 hatchling you can see better pics of them in the show off your leos section hope you enjoy.
