I get what you're saying, but until a "super cream" is completely visually different than any other super snow and those visual traits are shown through several years of breeding to be consistent, it is not a "morph" in the true sense of the word and should not be released on wiki or anywhere else as such as it confuses people and is generally bad for the industry.

Im not arguing nor upset Jordan...most all of my discussion is stated as opinion and some factual aspects as well (as far as the Super Cream stuff goes). I don't get upset over forums...no sense to get upset or the interwebs. If you lived in the US I would gladly provide Super Creams for you to work in to your project or line breed. Good luck with all your projects, and as I said I would love to see this work out for someone. After all who am I to say anything...I am a nobody in the realm of the community. This is all just my opinion on it.

Very interesting discussion, and I"m impressed that we've made it to 23 posts (now 24) and are still polite. I've actually wondered a lot about 2 related issues: how making a super snow version of any morph (except albino) can be ultimately that interesting since the color and pattern seem to cancel out with super snows (I am interested, though, in high white and also in pinstripes as opposed to random spots), and the great variety of what is being called creamsicle. My initial take on creamsicle was a banded gecko with highly contrasting white and orange coloring. Most of what I've seen called creamsicle (even the picture above of the superhypo, which is a gorgeous color but not what I think of as a creamsicle because there's no contrast) doesn't look like that anymore. I'm not saying this to be critical of what people are calling creamsicle; I'm willing to go with the flow if the definition has changed.

Aliza, There are a few variations of the Creams. I too began working with them when there was white and tangerine with noticeable color contrasts...however the morph has changed towards the demand. I produced a lot that look like what you are talking about...that was just an example of the white collar I am trying to single out and focus on.

Your welcome Kee. As I stated before I have had some come out VERY high white with just a few big spots but I have also has some come out so spotted they look black...hypo and SS don't collaborate very well.

I dont think this should be posted on wiki, As of now we dont even know if its possiable to get a slight yellow color to a super snow.

I have had geckos slightly tinted at birth but faded out at about 8-10g. So there has been some showing of possibility...I just don't want to continue chasing that project.

Dont see how the super snow whiteness doesn't counter the tang. Don't see this a new morph.

By the way, that was an awesome creamsicle!

By yellow super snow im saying one that displays sht genetics, it would be intresting though eventualy seeing an all orange gecko with black spotting(of the hypo dosent interfear) with black eyes.
