What morph do you think the hatchling is?

picture is the hatchling in question, the parents and the grand parents of the father.

The mother (luna) is a Super giant Tremper albino Mack Snow from embergecko.
The father (blaze) is from my previous year of breeding. I am thinking he is a super diorite due to speckling and only brown spots.

The father of blaze what i believe to be a mack snow with unknown hets.
The mother of blaze was a interesting lizard. Last year i believed she was a super snow blizzard but she produced hatchlings that all males had high speckling, both supers and snows. The two females she produced turned out to be less speckled but still brown spots. One super and one snow.

How would you explain this?
I was expecting only giant snows with poss het for TA and blizzard.

Where did you get these geckos? Would the breeders be able to tell you of any unknown hets?

I already contacted the breeder of the super giant. The grand parents were my first two and I will not be able to contact those breeders.

The grand parents only produced specked super snows and mack snows. So unless there were a unknown het of eclipse and patternless i dont know how i got this morph.

I am going to do test breeding to find out, just wanted to get some thoughts.


I am planning on test breeding but it was such a surprise that i would love opinions from others.

It looks SS to me. Most likely tremper considering the mother and the blizzard heritage (no one breeds rainwater blizzards...) Possibly blizzard but give it a couple months to see if it produces a pattern.
IDK about Eclipse, its possible... Blaze mother is definitely unique the white on her legs may suggest Eclipse genes, but it may also be if she is a SS... which would be odd since she doesnt have that white stripe down her back that SS Blizzards have... What a conundrum!!!

Owww my head :(

blaze as a hatchling

Here is blaze as a hatchling. I am starting to think that I was miss informed about Izzie's morph. I'm starting to think that Izzie is a super snow patty. I dont see how it is possible for this latest hatchling unless she is a super snow patty.

Yeah I think you are right that Izzie is a SS patty. And Blaze is a SS het patty. The het patty could be the reason that Blaze and his siblings are so spotty. I would not call them a diorite unless you breed the patty out first.

Did it again

So yesterday I got yet another surprise. Yet another ruby red eyed pink gecko. I am happy about my success of this year. Pictures to come soon. Thank you for everyone's help. I hate that i was missinformed on my first geckos. But at least it makes things interesting.


How much would giant super raptors go anyways out of curiousity.
