A male Tremper albino aptor het raptor poss giant and a female SHTCT?

and the male with a MS het bell and blizzard?

I'm thinking about pairing my two females with my male but i really know nothing about genetics. Its just a curiosity factor, since i don't have the immediate room for a breeding project right now. possible future (; any ideas what i might get?

first off you can NEVER mix albino strains. Therefore a bell and a Tremper should NEVER be bred. There are many morph calculators out there that will help you answer this question as well. Before you consider breeding it's very important you do the research to back it up. How do you plan to care for the hatchlings, are the adults healthy, and you need to understand that bad things can happen. Females can become egg bound and Males can prolapse, these can lead to death in leos. Breeding should never be done out of "curiosity".

To be honest, I wouldnt cross these geckos. One because of the albino mixing, and because you will probably be disappointed with what you get.

Then you shouldn't be breeding. Plain and simple.

I agree with everyone else, breeding is not something that should be done out of "curiosity", it is a serious commitment that requires ample time, money, research, knowledge, and experience if it is to be successful. It is so much more than just throwing two geckos together.

I do not wish to come off as rude, but my point is it is best not to be impetuous when it comes to breeding. You are dealing with the quality of the lives of your geckos and the many potential lives that could arise.

I think you guys misunderstood what I was saying. If I was to breed geckos, I would MOST DEFINITELY do all the research. The "curiosity factor" comment was directed towards if I WAS to breed in the VERY FAR future after doing said research and everything, what would I possibly get with those combinations. Yes, I know very little if anything about genetics, which was the reason for posting this question. This forum is for learning and asking questions is it not? How can I learn if I don't ask questions? I'm not about to jump into something if I have no idea what I'm doing. This once again was a genetics question to help expand my knowledge and learn about genetics, not one about whether or not I know what I'm doing when it comes to all the other stuff involved in breeding. Thank you, but I was just trying to learn something...

so... you can understand why people say no. you have no idea what albino strain the animal is het for. youd have to test breed all the animals, creating even more hets/possible hets. the mess would get too huge, too fast. so for helping the community, never cross the streams.

Yeah, that DOES seem like a huge mess... dang... Ive had a few people explain to me about the bell/tremper mix, it makes more sense now. Thank you for a good patient answer :)
