Line Breed Snows vs Mack Snows

[trizzypballr]

Ok guys Im new to the world of Geckos, learning pretty quickly, but still a rookie, My question is what is the difference between line breed snows and mack snows. Someone have pics to demonstrate? I have seen plenty of macks, but dont think ive ever seen a line breed.

Mack Snows are a Co-dominate trait

Albey's have a really nice web site with a good explanation about differences from mack and line breed snow
here you can found line-breed http://www.albeysreptiles.com/lbs.dis.htm
in the same web site there are a genetic page for mack snow crosses and breeding ;-)

hmm, how much do line breed snows go for now?

Gem Snows and Line Bred Snows are 2 different kinds.



There are 4 diffenent (Maybe Different) types of Snows.

Line Bred Snows

Mack Snows (He is actually 111 Grams now )

Gem Snows

Urban Gecko Snows

Line Breds are from Selective Breeding

Mack Snows are Proven Co-Dominant

Gem Snows are still being worked out, they act Dominant (I beleive), no Super Form has been hatched

Urban Gecko Snows - Urban Gecko claims it to be dominant



BUT

Kelli Hammack hase bred a Mack Super Snow to a Line Bred Snow and I beleive a Gem Snow and has hatched out Mack Super Snows. So, there is still a lot of test breeding that needs to be done.

this is a really nice genetic post jeanne! really interesting...
what's about gem snow? ..if no super form hatched, is correct call a gem gecko "snow"?
about urban gecko snow i'm curious to see theyr snow with others morph what will produced...

Nice collection, Jeanne! =]

 

[Ian S.]

WOW!! That MACK IS HUGE!!

 

[Jeanne]

what's about gem snow? ..if no super form hatched, is correct call a gem gecko "snow"?

Yes, because calling a Gecko a "Snow" is just a reference to the white coloration. By adding a "Morph" to it, it tells what type. like CoDom Mack SNOW, Line Bred SNOW, Etc

..i found the "gem web site"...now i understand...nice and interesting genetic working...a guy in italy found a male (apparently only more white than normal) and he breed him with a really white normal female...he hatced 3 babies with a large amont of white...i'm really curious to see them next year...
he serch for a long time the right breeding colony for start this personal project for produce some line-breed snow...
