Thanks for the kind words.
Paul, they are three different geckos, the first and third gecko in the post earlier came from the same group and he isn't an enigma.
Here are a couple more pics of the paradox.

Here is an updated pic of the paradox albino we hatched, he is getting close to 40 grams. I can post more pics later, we had a friend take some better pics for us. Hope you like.

I have updated my site with the following:
"The tangelo is a tangerine tremper albino; the tangerine is a polygenic line bred trait whose tangerine color has the same origin as all other tangerines on the market despite their founders claim otherwise. But through selective line-breeding...
Marcia, we all have much to learn.
So lets say we have a polygenic trait that has four different allelic mutations and the visible appearance of the animal is only non normal when all those mutations are found in both parents. If you have animals carrying the heterozygous form of said group...
Here is my experience pictures will be coming.
2005 I bought a pair of Tangelos from Kelli the male is a giant, with that pair I also purchased 3 SHCT het albino.
The only female that produced tangelos was the female tangelos, from the other three we produced some nice sunglows and SHCT...
So then there can't be anything new? Refining would be working with something all ready there but what about the random mutation. Just because there isn't one now doesn't mean there can't be. That is the beauty of genetics, mutations can and do occur. For example the few parodox albinos that...
Sorry for the post, I was using a public computer and it wasn't cooperating.
What I wanted to say is, is it worth starting new projects if some have all ready decided what can and can't be?
I spent a lot of time over the last year debating politics but don't want something I enjoy to take...
Do your homework! You can't breed a homozygous form of an incomplete dominant trait to a normal and not get heterozygous animals. But you don't need a genetics lesson, sure.
Take a look again Gregg where in the info from my site do I have any animals from those three groups for sale? That's...
Guess what then you probably didn't have a super hypo carrot-tail or you produced low quality offspring that were not distinguishable from normals. That is the way it works sometimes but you may not understand the difference between phenotype and genotype. You can't breed a super (homozygous...
Well I hadn't planned on this turning into a pissing contest! I really don't care what you think. I have done the work I know what they are and you are entitled to be wrong!
You don't know what I have, only a few are on my site. For you to say that there should be a tang blizzard now as...
Sorry Gregg, I didn't know everything I produced from this project needed to be approved by members here. I guess you know more about what I have been doing than I do. Why are some people so quick to assume they know more than the person doing the work? I spent the better part of a semester...
Actually I have done a lot of work with them, produced 400+ babies over the last few years to prove it. You-know-who hadn't done all of the work with them when he released them but I have. If you breed a tangelo to an albino you don't get more tangelos, but if you breed a tangelo to the albino...
I have been working with a group of tangelo's for several years and the tangerine is not co-dominant, it is a recessive trait. Tangelos can only be produced by tangelos or geckos with the recessive tangerine trait. They do vary a lot in how much the color fills in, males tend to be better and...
