Reverse Stripe Super Snow?

[fuzzylogix]

Parents were a SS Enigma and a Mack Snow Eclipse het typhoon. Has solid black eyes, i really need a better camera, lol.

lemme know what you think.

That looks like a Reverse Stripe Mack Snow Eclipse if it has solid black eyes.

 

[fuzzylogix]

thought that at first, but doesn't have the white nose of an eclipse

 

[Taquiq]

But Super Snow's won't hatch out with any color, just black and white. Very weird...
Let me think for a minute.

 

[robin]

that is not a super snow reversed stripe. joey that is not a fresh hatcling either

shawn, can you get some eye photos?

 

[Tony C]

It doesn't look like an Eclipse, but definitely not a SS either. Can you get shots of the eyes and nose?

 

[Taquiq]

joey that is not a fresh hatcling either

lol, wasn't paying that close of attention. But still not a SS.

 

[fuzzylogix]

yeah, not a fresh hatchling, this was one of craigs. im gonna try to get some pics of the eyes, but my cam really does suck. the only tag on this one was the parents, hd, and "het typhoon"

 

[robin]

knowing the exact genetics would be helpful but it may be something you will have to prove out. cute lil bugger though!

 

[fuzzylogix]

thats about the best i could grab real quick of the nose and at least one eye. won't sit still, lol. anybody wanna trade me a nice cam for a nice leo

 

[Enigmatic_Reptiles]

That is certainly not a SS, and the pic doesn't show the eye color very well but the nose certainly doesn't look eclipse.

 

[fuzzylogix]

yeah my stupid cam is very old, and blurs out badly when i get too close. i have other super snows and black holes, the eyes are definitely both solid black by comparison. im going to invest in a new cam and a loop for this very reason. but this one again has me confused. she had an eye infection when i got her but you can tell its been treated so she never really was able to open both eyes fully. now that she's better, ive been able to get a really good look.

 

[Tony C]

That is certainly not a SS, and the pic doesn't show the eye color very well but the nose certainly doesn't look eclipse.

I agree, this one has me stumped.

 

[RAlbrecht]

It looks like a reverse strip mack snow, possibly eclipse depending on the eyes, but wouldn't be a super snow and isn't really showing any enigma traits

 

[fuzzylogix]

im gonna keep a close watch on the eyes and see how they develop over time. and as tony suggested i plan on test breeding her to an eclipse to see what happens.

 

[Taquiq]

+1 with tony. Test breed to be sure.

Tinted eyed Snow reverse striped SPLIT Super snow.

Tinted eyes is a iris black out trait that are often seen on Snows as well as Blizzards some times other morphs. It's seems to be a ramdom trait with no genetic predictability, That looks Eclipse but dosen't act like or mix with Eclipse.

 

[Enigmatic_Reptiles]

...tinted eyes??? If you are talking about the eclipse eyes on SS and Blizzards (although not the eclipse gene) then that would mean that this gecko is a SS...which it is not. The best thing that this gecko can be based off of what we know about it is a Reverse Stripe Mack Snow Eclipse.

Shawn - The only way for you to know anything for sure is to do as Tony said (test breed). You may have to test breed a lot of yours since they were all identified by lid markings but not all are 100% guaranteed. We can all only help so far but we are making educated guesses from information provided...not guaranteeing anything we say/suggest.

Standed Snow also express a iris black out trait, That is NOT Eclipse or to do with the Iris black out seen in Super snows. It's nose is to marked, Not white wash so IMO it's not Eclipse. Just coz it's Snow and it has iris black out of any percent doesn't make it a Eclipse snow reverse striped.

 

[Enigmatic_Reptiles]

I am fully aware of that. However no one knows the genetics for sure on it either way.
