Hatchling SSA vs BB vs SSBB

[Okee Reps]

How do you tell the difference between a Super Snow Albino, Blazing Blizzard and Super Snow Blazing Blizzard as a hatchling. This is so confusing.

 

[boywonder]

super snow albinos are pink with solid red eyes at hatchling, blazing blizzards have a dark head that fades away after a couple of weeks and they have normal albino eyes, and a super snow blazing blizzard has a dark head but has solid red eyes

well BB does not have the solid eyes and on the SSA you can see some of the pattren now the SSBB idk.

well that shows you i was not reading slow enough

The best explanation is the one given by boywonder.

However the most important thing is knowing the genetics of the parents. I don’t know if you are actually breeding these pairs of not, but if you are I would be really interested in know what the pairing is.

the way i read the post it sounded like okee reps had bred two snows het for tremper and blizzard together and since the offspring from this combo would all be white geckos he wanted a way to distinguish between them, however if i assumed wrong then halley is correct, keep records of your pairings and label egg containers well

super snow albinos are pink with solid red eyes at hatchling,

Correct, and SSBB look have the same characteristics.

blazing blizzards have a dark head that fades away after a couple of weeks and they have normal albino eyes,

Not always true. I've seen BB with solid red eyes. They are becoming rare these days but they did start off having red eyes and some luckily people have them.

and a super snow blazing blizzard has a dark head but has solid red eyes

Ok.

Check out this link and see if the SSBB in that thread fits the aforementioned characteristics because I just don't see the dark head. If so explain it in way that I might be able to understand please.

Granted this is A SSRWBB, but here it is a few hours old.

SSTA do indeed get a pattern only after a few months. Hatchlings..

Welcome to the fun James

Paul you're the man! I'm still as confused as I ever was but you put up the comparison pics. What else could I ask for?

I guess I have to wait and see how this one progresses.

 

[paulnj]

send me an image.. I think I can help

Aren't those awesome. I had a feeling the rw would bring in the nice dark ruby eyes. James post your pics of the babies.

 

[Okee Reps]

I couldn't get him to open his eyes for the camera and didn't feel like going through the headache right now to get some good pics. His eyes appear to be solid red though.

Well I can't help on the telling of difference, but he's sweat. Tremper or rw line?

 

[paulnj]

That's not a SSTA.. looks SSTABB to me.

 

[eyelids]

It's definitely got the SS head... I would say SSTABB as well...
