So uhm... Hi! again... :) I joined this forum 8 years ago and never have been really active. I joined back then after purchasing my first leo who I unfortunately found dead in his cage about a year later. After that event a lot of serious stuff happened in my life and keeping leo's was not a...

Those really are some nice animals :) I think I'm starting to understand the stripes, in theory that is. Theory is one thing, actual breeding another... Thanks for sharing your experience and clearing up some things, now I even like those stripes more :main_yes: -Jonathan

So theoretically speaking you could 'create' your own eclipse gene without any albino influences by breeding patternless stripes together? Also, everything I've read about stripes applies to the redstripes then? With the only difference being the (line bred) colour? Exactly what I just did :)

Thanks for your input Jeremy, have you ever experienced red stripes acting recessive even though it's line bred?

I hope Jeremy, Dan and Paul will input some of their findings here. I'm really interested in the red stripe genetics but since I read the mixed up outcomes of stripe projects I got really confused. Some say it's recessive, the next says it's polygenetic and others say they're polygenetic but...

I'm still learning morphs as well, this is just a geuss and you shouldn't just assume it's right :p but could it be a snow of some kind? What are the parents? It's a beauty.

I've read a lot about this, some say this, some say that. I'm really confused now, is it recessive or polygenetic? And what exactly happens if it's poly and you breed a redstripe to a normal? Cheers

Welcome Nice gecko's, the little guy is lucky to be with you. You have my wifes favourite motorcycle (her fav is a poisongreen kawasaki) I also don't know if poisongreen exists in english, but that's what we call it in dutch :) Enjoy posting and reading

Me as well, I work nightshifts... :) I thought they would need a night/day rhythm(is this spelled right?) in order to thrive.

I've been reading a lot about racks, now what I'm wondering about, how does everyone take care of the lighting in their racks? Do you use natural light (the sun), or the light of the entire room? Maybe a lamp for every tub? Or a fluorescent lamp along the back of the rack? These are the...

I think you might be misinterpreting snake eyes, a leos pupil is always vertical. I'm adding an example of snake eyes, the picture was originally posted by Nigel4less. Nigel, I hope you don't mind and it's a really nice animal by the way :)

so this isn't the original HQR?

Those really are some high quality animals!!! Gotta love em!:main_yes:

what do these abreviations mean? i've been looking around but can't really find it...

I think it's a very good idea, and let's make it international as wel :D So far I found 1 breeder in Belgium... (and 1 in the Netherlands, but being Belgian, I prefer closer to home)
