I have a couple questions about super embers,as this will be my primary project this year.I just got a beautiful ember girl,and will be getting a male mack raptor in a couple weeks.I will cross them together,and then cross the mack raptors het ember back to eachother to have a slim chance of getting the super ember(6.25% super ember,12.5% mack ember,6.25% ember).My questions are:

1.Has anyone produced this yet?(I'm assuming they have since the morph has been out for nearly 4 years)

2.Can someone post or direct me to some pictures(couldn't find them on Leoaprdgeckowiki...)

3.How will I tell a super raptor from a super ember,as both are patternless geckos with red eyes(I'm assuming the super ember is more yellow?)

Thanks for looking and for any help you can give me.I am super excited about this project.I think it will be a fun one!If you want to get in on producing these,I will have many hets and possible hets to sell off!

Sorry my response is short but I am headed out the door;
yes they have been created
They will be distinguished by the complete lack of pattern on them. Super Raptors will often still have subtle SS marking on them. There also may be a slight yellowish tint to the Super Ember...as with all projects, it depends on the quality and appearance of the breeders.

So the super ember is basically another white gecko with red eyes?I'm still cool with that though,because(like the super raptor),I like the genetics involved.A triple homozygous recessive gecko(ember) is crazy enough,but them add a dominant or codominant gene,and it makes for a genetic power house.I'm not a fan of white gecko usually,but I would love to own and produce these super embers.I have been doing some reading,and I have read that it is really hard to distinguish the snow ember from the super ember.Is that true?And doesn't a snow ember look like a Mack snow Patty Tabino and the Super ember like a super snow patty Talbino but with red eyes?Thanks for your guys' help!

I do know that Gembers are in the works. That should be a cool lil project

I'm assuming a "Gember" is a Gem snow Ember.That does sound like an awesome project.I'm not familiar with the Gem snows though,wouldn't the Gember still look like a mack ember,or would it be different?And could you produce super Gembers?I'm kinda changing the subject,so maybe we should continue this via PM?
