Honestly -I suck at genetics so i don't have a clue
I am sure that some of our more savvy genetics experts will help you out with this one

I imagine that everyone's kicking back tonight after those big Easter dinners-lol

You would definitely get sunglows and if your female proves out Giant, then you will have a few Giant Tremper Hybinos

the hets would be 'degraded' tangerines (hypos) het albino, so yes you'd get some geckos that combined the Tangerine influence and visibly express the albino trait in the second generation. Your very own home-grown sunglows!

Having only one parent a giant, you most likely won't produce any giants, but you will get some larger than normal offspring--just not genetic giants. Plus, since she has no hypo (tangerine) influence, her babies would be further degraded tangerines...I'd just breed the nicest hets to each other, so that both parents contain all the desired traits. :) Best of luck, sounds like a fun project!

tremper X shtct(b) make hypo het tremper

bredding the best male to a tang tremper introduces the hypo gene to give you a few reduced pattern tangerine trempers. From there SELECTIVE line breeding will bring you a true tremper hybino in a generation or 2.

back to figuring out my 160+ animal's genetics when crossed
