Hello!

Hello, everyone i have join this for to ask about Leopard Gecko Morphs i figured with a name like "GeckoFourms" it would be a good place to ask questions about leos.. I'm a starting a breeding program with leopard geckos just picked up my first pair today, but i don't really understand how the genetics work... My pair is a Jungle Bandit "Female" And a Snowglo "Male" what would i get from there babies and why?

Neither one of these geckos, as far as I can tell is a "snowglo". The Snowglo is supposed to be a Mack snow superhypo albino gecko. That means that there would be no body pattern at all, which is what "superhypo" means. I don't think I'd call either one a bandit either. What you seem to have are two albino geckos, the top one with a reverse stripe pattern and the bottom with a jungle pattern. I have no idea if they are Mack snows or not, since you can't tell with adults. If you breed them, you will get all albino geckos and most will have some sort of striping. That could be aberrant (broken tail or body bands but not both), jungle, stripe, reverse stripe or possibly patternless stripe (little or no black markings on the body at hatching). If one parent really is snow, then some of the babies will be born beige and white instead of beige and yellow and will be Mack snows as well.

Personally, I feel that a person should not start breeding until they do understand the genetics. Also, it's important before breeding to have an incubator with a proper thermostat, lay boxes, egg containers, food and housing for babies and funds in case a vet visit is needed. Experience caring for geckos is a must as well. If you have all of these things except an understanding of genetics, then that's easy to get and you can start with the leopard gecko wiki (Leopard Gecko Wiki) and the reptile calculator (Reptile Calculator). If you don't have the other things, please delay breeding until you do.

I am not breeding yet and i do have everything i need to do so.. And that's why i'm here.. To learn. I got them from a trusted breeder the SnowGlos father was a mack snow. They have to be what he said i have had like 10 people who told me to buy from him because hes a trusted breeder.
