You could breed to a Mack Snow to make a Cremesicle...

...Or to a Tremper Albino to make a Sunglow... But to do so, since you need 2 carriers of the albino gene to make it homozygous, you'd have to take that baby, since it will be het for albino, and breed it back to the albino parent. And since you are doing "selective breeding", you'd take the brightest, most colorful one, and breed that one, and keep breeding your selected leo's to intensify the desired color or trait.

...And if you want to take that one step further (granted this is a few years down the road), you could then take that Sunglow and breed it to a Mack Snow to create a Snowglow.

Past that, can't think of any others, lol...

Check out leopardgeckowiki.com and do some research on some of the morphs they list to see where you'd want to go with your project. They have just about every morph's description listed on there.

You wouldnt get cremesicles the first year. It usually takes at least 2-3 years to get something worth calling a cremesicle, same with snowglows...

In terms of breeding your shtct i would start out simple and buy a nicer hypo male, like a blood hypo or just a nice tang.
