Please confirm : Is this a Bell Albino?

[WoWo]

My Male was sold to me as a Bell but everyone said it's a Tremper. I had only Tremper babies until now, this baby's from a new female and it looks like a Bell to me, very pinkish eyes... If so, the Male's Tremper het Bell. I need confirmation to correct everything : All babies i had would be het tremper AND het bell too..!

No one can say 100% sure on which strain it is. That is why it's so important to know the genetics of your animals before you breed them. I replied to your other post with more.

It's hard to really see the eyes well enough when they're young, but I would guess tremper along with all the other ones you posted.

This is a bell eye:

It's really hard to see the eye detail in your pic though. And you can't go by the coloring or patterns most of the time.

Right, that's why even though the body colors looks like Tremper, the eyes are so pinkish i'm definitly thinking it's a bell. As said, i had a dozen of Tremper last year and their eyes were grey, totally. Of course we gotta wait, see in a month how they are..

 

[Kristi23]

This is a tremper eye (it's not grey).

The veins in the bell eyes are usually thinner than the tremper eyes.

But these are just two examples that are mine. Eyes vary a lot.

As said, its eyes are pinkish, unlike ALL OTHERS i had before here, and i can see that with bare eyes, i mean it's really strrong somehow.. Like it has a pink hue haha.

Don't know what I can tell you. It may not be possible to id your geckos since you do not know the genetics. I would mark them all as "pet only" and would not breed them again.

very simple.


If you insist on breeding this one, (something i do not recommend).


Pair it with a tremper: 100% albinos = tremper || No albinos = no tremper
Pair it with a bell: 100% albinos = bell || 50% albinos & 50% Normals = Het || No albinos = no bell

Only sell the offspring as pet geckos.


But i really suggest you dive into genetics more before continuing to breed. :main_thumbsup:


THERE IS NO WAY TO 100% SAY WHAT GENETICS ARE IN A GECKO BY EYE. :main_thumbsdown:


If you plan on serious breeding, know what you buy, ask for a genetic background.

Most of the breeders here DO NOT take enough note to provide the background unfortunatly..
