Hatchlings @ 2 weeks

[Thorgecko707]

Can anyone tell me why one hatchling would be really light

And the other one completely dark?

It's so dark that the yellow has dark spots. I'm confused. 90-95F should make light geckos right? They were clutchmates too. Makes me wonder how dark it would be incubated at 80F.

One might be a true normal, and the other might end up hypo-ing out... I thought temps above 90 degrees were dangerous. Have you always used these temps??

95 is way too hot to incubate. Also, from what I've learned...higher temps make albinos lighter, but it doesn't effect non albino morphs.

complete opposites

By this point in time every leopard gecko has a plethora of genes in them and you never know what will come out. Thats just an example of one having hypo influence and the other not.

That explains it. We don't get normal babies. This year is the first since 2006. Why doesn't temp affect non albino?

The first one looks younger, did it hatch a lot earlier? The second one's colors look darker because of that, and they don't look too different to me. Cute

The light one hatched two days before the dark one.

Mine has different amounts of darkness. Not albino and normal.
