Is this a normal or a banded albino?

[lytlesnake]

It's my first year breeding leos, and I've hatched mostly Tremper Jungle albinos, and a couple RAPTORs. I do have a few that look like normals though. I think this is a normal, but I thought I'd check in with you experts.

It looks like it might develop into a beautiful Super Hypo Tangerine

Wow, no way! That's one of the morphs I thought it might possibly be. Very cool!

I've got one with a wicked looking black stripe that I'll post tomorrow.

Nice one!

I agree. It is not an albino, but should develop into a very nice hypo!

Very cool! I like the colors.

Thanks again everyone! What a cool surprise. I only have 2 breeder males... One is a RAPTOR from Steve Sykes Geckos Etc..., and one is a Jungle Albino from an APTOR x APTOR breeding by Leopard Gecko Punk. The Jungle has only bred to a single female, who is another Jungle Albino (from Gecko Genetics).

Now, the RAPTOR male bred to a normal female het RAPTOR that Kelli gave me. I'm guessing this is the result of that gecko and the RAPTOR. I may be able to know for sure by the date she hatched, but I kinda had eggs from different females in the same incubator tub. I know, I should have had them all seperate. I think I have all the dates eggs were laid and the hatch dates, but some were pretty close to each other.

Anyway, assuming this super hypo tangerine is possible het RAPTOR, could this potentially lead to a red eyed hypo project?

How would it be a possible het? If one parent is homozygous, then the baby is a het. The carrothead and tangerine color plus the fact that the baby is not an albino proves that it came from the Raptor X normal breeding, based on the info provided. It could not have come from the jungle albino X jungle albino, because it is not albino.

Edit: alot of people have red eyed hybinos.

Ahh, so it's a definite het then. Cool, thanks for the info. I see that Kelli hatched a nice banded RAPTOR.
