I have some questions...

[jandsfannon]

Hi Everyone,

I am new to breeding Leopard Geckos and am doing the research to try to figure out the genetics. I am still a little confused, so please bear with me if I ask stupid questions. Ok so this is what I have (or think I have if there are any corrections please let me know)
1. Male Normal

2. Female Normal

3. Female Albino (think shes a tremper)

4. Female/male (not sure yet) albino

5. Female Tangerine or Hypo orange (the guy was not sure which)

So I guess the question would be what can I expect to get if I have the one normal male to breed to the 4 females or if the albino turns out to be a male what can I expect to get if I use the albino to breed the females?


Thanks for your help, I am hoping some of you answers will help me fill in the blanks for understanding the genetics and thanks for your patience!!!!

Ok im just going to go by the number of the pics-

1x2= normal, maybe some hypo-ish

1x3= normal 100% het whatever strain your albino is(i also think tremper)

1x4= normal 100% het whatever strain of albino

1x5= hypo-ish tangs

If the one albino turns out male....

4x1= normal 100% het whatever strain(temper?)

4x2= normal maybe hypo-ish 100% het albino

4x3= 100% albino(if they are the same strain)

4x5= normals, possibly hypo/tang-ish 100% het albino.

All of those should be correct except if male 1 is het for albino and bred to the albinos youd have a possibility of albinos.
