Mack snow Bell x Tangerine Bell = 50% Bells 50% Mack snow Bells, possibly with tangerine influence (although this will be unnoticeable in the Macks).

Mack snow Bell x CoDom snow jungle Bell = 25% Bells, 50% Mack snow Bells and 25% super snow Bells. CoDom snow and Mack snow are the same. Most Macks are jungle, it's a trait that is part of the Mack snow gene, so probably it doesn't have anything to do with the normal jungles and won't be passed down to the non-Mack offspring.

Mack snow Bell x Bell = 50% Bells, 50% Mack snow Bells

Can't wait to see the pics :)

You'll also get some normals het bell too. We've done all those crosses and got snow bells, snows and normal het bells, bells, tang bells, hypo tang bells. You could also get some hypo macks that are het bell-at least we did and that was unexpected.
You'll get some ss's from the mack x mack pairing and from the jungle bell you might get more pattern variations than just banded. It depends how much pattern your snow bell has.
I didn't realize you were a local-we'll have to check out each others collections some day.

Marlo, how come that she would get normals het Bell if all the geckos she said are homozygous Bells? If you got any hets from the crosses she said, one of your geckos isn't a Bell...

And I stick to the thought that unless the Mack has some jungle influence apart from the typical jungle pattern of the Macks, any non-Macks aren't supposed to be jungle.

I miss read-I thought she meant mack snow het bell, not snowbell.
What do you mean by non-macks aren't supposed to be jungles? You don't think the jungle pattern will show on the bells?

Most Mack snows have jungle patterns as a part of the Mack snow gene. If the Mack gene isn't present the Bells shouldn't be inheriting that pattern.

There could be cases where the Mack snow has jungle influence that comes from outside the Mack snow gene, and that could be transmitted.
