Pictus Morphs / still proving

[Ryan Jarosek]

Thought I would share some of the pictus we are working with. Some really fun stuff. The geckos below I thought I would share. I have a couple other projects I am working on that I am not sure what to call them. Sorry the pics suck I took them on my phone.

This one is just about to shed

Perfect Stripe.. (bold?) I don't know what to call it.

hmmmm

Anry

Xanthic

Those are gorgeous, especially love teh reddish one..how many generations did it take to produce an animal like that?

This is only my 3rd generation of babies. The red one was a random hatch from my xanthic group. I have a couple now and would like to figure out the genetics on it. I am not sure whats behind it yet other than it may have been a dark morph and is a xanthic displaying a more reddish tone. If anything I am excited. I know others that have some red pictus that I am hoping to get some info from them.

I have a couple xanthic with the bold stripe like the first pic. The black outline of the white stripe is lavender. Its really cool. I am hoping to cross the anry and the bold stripe next.

This next season I am going to work a little on figuring out what is recessive like the xanthic and if anything is dominant/codom. Boy I would love to see a super of something come out of a pictus.

Along with color morphs I have 5 different distinct patterns I am working with as a selective bred trait. The include Striped, Banded, Jungle, Marble, and something I call Bones. I am on the lookout for tri striped pictus but have heard there arn't any in the US.

Congrats for the amazing P. pictus! I am highly impressed mainly from the individual on the first photo.

I'll be happy if you upload some picture of what you call Bones as a pattern.

In my P. pictus group I've only Stripe, Banded and something between which I call Aberrant. Absolutely agree with you that this species has a huge potential for a high diversity of morphs.

Good luck with your breeding projects!
