Unusual baby from Giant parents: dwarf?

[phalanx]

I found this one yesterday in the incubator.

This hatchling comes from a pairing of a giant tangerine tremper albino x giant tremper albino:

I have a strong feeling this is a dwarf: she only has 1 band between the legs, tail is much shorter than usual, but the head seems to have the right proportions. She has a weight of 3 gramm and hatched after 58 days.

Her sister is as normal as can be.

i believe your right, dwarf a beautiful one at that

3 grams is about normal hatchling size. I would say you hit the 25% for normal size.

Giant x Giant

25% Normal
50% Giant
25% Super Giant

I know the odds, I already hatched quiet some babies over the years, but this one realy has a small body.

like already said her head is just fine but the lenght between her legs is half the size of a regular hatchling, same for her tail.

Wow. She's cute! Her body does looked to be 'dwarfed' in proportion to her head. Very interesting.

Wow that is amazing.. keep us updated on her growth and progress, she is very beautiful!

PS- can you get a pic of her compared to another hatchling?

it has the proportions/look of achondroplasia. I have produced a very small percentage of strangely tiny babies from my giant Tremper pair also--one was 1.4g at hatch, but had perfect proportions--nothing like your special little one Please keep us updated as he/she grows! I'd name him/her "Burglecut" i.e. Willow

Thats awesome!

Wow she's itty bitty, that's interesting. Dwarfism in Leopard geckos is definitely interesting and I find it more interesting that a Dwarf popped out of "Giant" Leopard Geckos.
