20130206_135116.jpg i think she is an albino it has grey eyes so temper im thinking but could be bell albino?
20130206_135300.jpg this is my male i think he is a tangerine temper jungle het raptor if i remember? he has red eyes and im pretty sure the breeder said he was her for raptor
20130206_135432.jpg this is the new lady that i got for free on craigslist the owner said she was a murpys patternless albino.

the next question would be what would be the out come if i bred the 2 girls to the male. i really dont know alot about genes im just trying to learn.

thanks for the help chris

Well, if you don't know for sure what they are, you should not breed them. Also, you never want to mix albino genes. That is a big no no. It's best to get a REALLY good pair or say 2 females and a male with the intent of breeding that you know there background. Gain as much knowledge as you can about morphs, breeding, incubation, hatchling care, husbandry, and common issues/problems during breeding. If it's something your really interested in, it's worth taking the time and talking to other breeders and learning the market on what you should be breeding. I am not a breeder, and I don't intend on going that route anytime soon. You really need to know what you are doing and how your going to do it. You do have some nice looking Leo's though. I am really jealous of your male :)

thanks thats the one im trying to breed if i decided to go that route . what it said on the tub when i bought him was tan jungle het raptor. im just making sure thats what he is. the only one i dont know is if the the top one is a bell albino or a temper albino. i don think she is bell because there is no pink in her eyes and ive read thats how you tell i could be wrong. any advice on if they are what i think they are or something else would be greatly welcome
thanks

The first one doesn't look like an albino to me and hopefully you got that shed off of her toes, because it looks like it's pretty built up. So many people are breeding leos that I just wouldn't do it. I have a BEAUTIFUL Banana Blizzard female, but since I don't know her genetics she is my only gecko and is kept solely as a pet. I personally think it would be very irresponsible to breed them. I'm no morph expert, but that first one looks like a normal to me. *shrug

The first female looks like a dark albino to me and your MP (3rd picture) looks like its quite dark as well. They get dark like that when they were incubated in cool temperatures, if they've been kept in an enclosure that's a bit too cool, or if they're not getting the correct diet/supplementation. She also looks a bit too thin to be bred and the shed on her toes needs to be tended to or she may lose her claws. I would seriously think about getting your husbandry down before putting opposite sexes together. If they're not 100% healthy breeding can hurt or even kill them and the chances of winding up with unhealthy offspring increase too.

the reason i ask is because i just rescued these to females last weds. im just trying to figure out what they are. my temper male is the only one ive had since last week. the boy said he kept them warm by puting them by the heater.
