The color saturation is quite crazy but she's still orange IRL. I called that "Jungle Tangerine Tremper", is that correct for you? Also, what would be the sale value of such morph? Same question for a Tangerine Tremper (not Jungle). Knowing that a (nice) albinos is generally ~40..

Jungle is a term that refers to an abnormal banding pattern on body and tail. I wouldn't call that jungle as only one band is slightly different than normal.

Not one, two ;) There's one at the base of the tail normally, here it's a dot.. Other than that, Tangerine Tremper sounds right to you? What about the value question?

Most of mine have a dot rather than a stripe at the base of their tail. I price most of my Trempers in the $60-$125 range depending on quality and intensity of color. Males tend to be a bit lower priced than females if they're not super high quality. Also depends a lot on where the breeders come from and how sure you can be of hets.

I don't breed many straight tremper albinos. Most of mine are sunglows or raptors/aptors or het trempers. I got a few this season from a w/y cross but some seem to have a bit of something else going on. They could be w/y or emerine. Here are a couple of pictures of the ones I've put at $125:

Here's three of the ones I had pop out this year that I'd consider jungles. Of course its kind of a matter of opinion how aberrant a jungle should be. I like mine a little crazy...haha

Thanks for the pics, they're all amazing.. But in short, how much would you rate mine, if it was yours?

I probably wouldn't consider it a jungle either. As for tangerine tremper, that depends on the genetics. Trempers can be orange in color without having tangerine lines (in recent lineage). If it was from something like tangerine het tremper x tangerine het tremper, then I would call it a tangerine tremper. But unless I'm mistaking, it's named by the genetics and not just the color. Hope that makes sense.

I don't think a Gecko can be that Orange by magic.. ;)

Tremper Albinos can range in colors from dark browns to light yellows, oranges, and pinks.

As I stated before, it is a tangerine albino if the tangerine morph is in the gecko. I'm not saying that gecko doesn't have tangerine. I'm saying that you should label it according to genetics and not appearance.

There is a chance that most albino lines have some sort of tangerine anymore, but I do see some that don't look like it. However, most will label it with the tangerine line it was bred with (blood, electric, etc).

Did you buy it or produce it? If you bought it, what was it labeled as?

No i didn't buy it. After checking, this one came out from the Tangerine female (and Tremper male) so that make sense :)
