Hmmm....and all this time I was under the impression that stripe x reverse stripe = paternless stripes?? interesting.
Those are super sweet leos!
Congrats.

Dad's looking sweet in the circus mirror effect. Great pics.

Whacky patterns!

Cool beans.

Ian, yes you are right, it just does not only result in PRS. There are also "Patternless" which hatch out looking more like stripes/jungles or reverse stripes. Not very many of them hatch without some type of pattern.

what is the difference between stripe * reverse stripe and red stripe * reverse stripe? do they both make the Patternless gene? one better than the other?

Huh? A Stripe is a Stripe. Reverse Stripe has a stripe down the center, just the reverse of a regular stripe. Red Stripe is also a regular stripe, but more colored.

Noone really knows, if the Reverse Stripes or Stripes make Patternless on their own. They may, just like Reverse Stripes, come from Jungle/Stripe lines, though.

There are some pure Red Stripes that look alot like them. We don`t know if they make "Eclipse" though. The Patternless Red Stripe line came from breeding Stripe and Reverse Stripe Albino. The PRS do make "Eclipse", and of course Ruby Eyed Albinos.

The PRS do make "Eclipse", and of course Ruby Eyed Albinos.

Now Im confused, you can breed a Stripe to a Reverse stripe and the Eclipse gene will just randomly pop out?

 

[GroovyGeckos.com]

You have to have breed Stripe X Reverse Stripe to get the PRS first. The Eclipse come from breeding the PRS or even "het" PRS, in the second generation.

I would keep them just from the fact that they were born on 4/20!
Nice leos!
