My 2 cents...



Joe, the dude you are talking to is actually a woman... A pretty hot one at that... LOL... And as you have already said, she also knows her stuff...



Now these next statements are coming from someone who was big into leopard geckos for many years...



As already stated, these are not leopard gecko genetics where the albino strains can be hard to tell apart to begin with and are still sometimes mistaken for one another...



In my opinion Joe has done nothing wrong... In fact by doing this cross, he is helping to push the morphology of this species ahead... PPAs are easily distingushed from the classic albino... This means that telling hatchlings apart is quite easy to do...



I am not 100% sure but I am willing to bet that the double visual albino/PPA will look different from both the classic albino and the PPAs and most likely pretty hot...



Mixing the albino lnes in leopard geckos has been done in the past and even quite recently... Anyone who was trying to produce RADARs had to have mixed Bells with Trempers even if they were at the very lest 50% poss hets... I am certain there are Bells poss het Tremper and vice versa floating around in collections without anyone knowing...



My point is, you can not compare leopard gecko genetics with hognose genetics and if you do, you need to consider that the very same has been done with leos to either test breed or in an attempt to create a new morph...
