>What should you get when you cross and albino and a hypo? Don't you get sunglows with snakes? Would it be the same with leos?

In corn snakes, some sunglows are selectively bred amelanistics (albinos). And other sunglows are a combination of amelanistic and hypomelanistic. In boa constrictors, sunglow is a combination of salmon (aka hyp) and albino. It might be the same with leopard geckos, and it might not. You might get a sunglow, or the combination might just look like albino. It all depends on whether hypo in the leopard gecko does more than just reduce the amount of melanin present. And I don't know enough about leopard gecko genetics to be able to accurately predict the outcome. You would not get the combination before the second generation, though. Good luck.
