What might I get from breeding these?

Hello!
I'm new to the world of breeding geckos this year, and I have a few questions.
My stallion of a male, a bandit bold jungle morph:

with these girls:

Tangerine albino (this girl hasn't been bred yet, since she is a little too thin from what I think.)

Normal: (this girl has produced 6 fertile and AWESOME looking eggs so far in a couple of months. :eek: )

Tremper albino:

High Yellow:

Will I get any morphs at all? Especially thinking about my normal female, since she's giving me so many good eggs.. but because I don't think the marked is popular enough for normal geckos, I just want to make sure if I should incubate them or not..

Female looks good size, is she 45 grams or over? But when you breed her to the bold strip jungle bandit, you will get offspring with some tang coloring, probably with some jungle pattern, that are also 100% het Tremper albino.

Normal: (this girl has produced 6 fertile and AWESOME looking eggs so far in a couple of months. )

Normals, again most likely with some jungle pattern, and 100% het Tremper albino

High Yellow:

Normals, again most likely with some jungle pattern

Tremper albino:

Normals, again most likely with some jungle pattern, and 100% het Tremper albino

Well of course incubate them; you might not be producing the most fantastic morphs out there. But somebody will want them. Didn’t you want your normals? Other people will as well. Most of us probably owe our addiction to leopard geckos, to normals, or high yellows.

That Male is AWESOME! I really like him. :main_thumbsup:

What I would "suggest" is that you breed him to the normal and high yellow girls. I think that gives you the best shot at reproducing offspring with his pattern. I would suggest aquiring a Tang Tremper male or het RAPTOr male to breed to the two tremper girls. Again, only my suggestion. Best of Luck with your breeding! :main_yes:

Edit - I just noticed he's got quite a significant stripe as well. Very Kewl Guy!

I also agree that you should definitely incubate the eggs because many people LOVE normals. What have you done with the eggs thus far if you haven't incubated them?

All of your geckos are very nice :D Your High Yellow looks like it has some Stripe and Hypo influence as well, she is very gorgeous :main_yes:

Your male stallion is very cool . I would incubate all the eggs. I would need a better pic of the Hi-Yellow showing the tail to be sure it it is stripe or not. They all look healthy. Buy a Dig scale so you can weigh all your leopards in grams.

Hi, and sorry for the late reply! So many forums to keep track on. *sweat* :p

Thanks for the advice and the compliments of my geckos. :) I was actually planning on getting another male, but when I saw this guy... I just had to have him! haha
I've already bred him to my high yellow and normal, and they have given me some reaally nice eggs. All fertile, glowing red like insane. 7 eggs in the incubator now, and my high yellow girl seems to be coming with a second clutch soon.

I bought my gorgeous male from Angels Geckos in Sweden just a month ago, so the eggs haven't really been coming until recently.

My high yellow girl was accidentally gravid, as she did a rebellious teenage escape at the previous owner, and hooked up with one of his males. :p None of the eggs she has come with, about 2 pairs, have made it through. :( Some has been infertile, and the few who was fertile, just strangely died and molded after 2-3 weeks.

Hm... better pick of the high yellow girl.. let's see..

Will this work?

About incubating normals - well. It really depends. I like normals as well, but I'm not sure how populare they are around here. I will at least check out the 7 eggs I got in my incubator, and if the normals turn out awesome, I'll hatch the rest as well.
Living in a country where reptiles are illegal (hopefully it'll change pretty soon... ^_^) also makes it sort of hard to sell babies I won't need in the breeding-projects. o.o But we'll see. :) I just hope I'll manage to hatch some babies, since I've had so much bad luck the first tries! :main_lipsrsealed:

Oh, and my Tangerine girl is 43 grams. :/ she's had a period where she wasn't eating at all, but now she's back again and eats like a horse.. She is small of size, and is a proven breeder. I just want to get her as fat as possible first.. :)
