I have a breeding group that has produced some animals that shouldnt be produced according to the genetics calculator and their labels at time of purchase 3 years ago. My male was listed as a high yellow, my two females were listed as jungle tremper albinos and I have produced snows from this pairing. I am now thinking something was labeled incorrectly and i should breed next year to try and prove what is what. Please advise and thank you. I have attached pics of all 3 parents and 2 of the babies. Pic 1 is Bob pic 2 is Odette pic 3 is Ada and the last 2 pics are of clutch mates from one of the females. ( My daughters name the geckos )

Both of the Tempers pictured look like snows to me. Snow is a dominant trait so only one parent needs to have the gene for them to produce snow offspring.

Did you purchase the parents as older juvies or adults? Sometimes they just don't look like snows at that stage. I had something similar happen (which I wrote about in my most recent Gecko Time article). I paired a new gecko female breeder with my male Mack snow and have produced 2 super snows so far!
