Suggestion of a male for my female

MeDuSaGrL1 Oct 16, 2007 09:31 PM

Hey everybody! I have a female leo. (her name's Medusa =P) who's about 56 grams and still growing and 8 inches long, and just about 8 mos. old or so. She has awesome color...almost a leucistic if not for some dark pigmentation/spotting on her head and tail; her body is high-yellow with very, very faint banding that's almost a slight lavender (just darker than the yellow of the rest of her body) and she has a carrot-tail which is orange about 1/2 to 3/4 down with some lavender mixed in. She's really gorgeous and as soon as I can get a good picture of her, I'll post one!

My question is this: Does anyone have any good suggestions of what morph to match to her to get some really awesome offspring...like what would I likely get if I matched her up to a similarly colored male, or a normal wild-type male, or an albino male, etc.? Also, any ideas of what morph mine could be? Thanks!!!

Sounds like a superhypo carrotail,
If she isnt a het for anything than I wouldnt suggest breeding her with other morphs because it will make the geckos look plain. Id say find yourself a nice Baldy Tangerine with some Carrotail and you should end up with babies which look similar with more of an intense color.
