This is princess. When I got her I was just gonna keep and breed her with my hypo tangs, but she turned out so nice. I feel like I have to get a tang albino group going LOL...

What do you think??

To be honest, I have no idea what a hybino is. Can you explain?

Dont quote me on this, Im not 100% sure, but I believe Ray Hine one of the premier leopard gecko breeders dubbed hybino to an albino leopard gecko with less banding (less white). Which I believe both yours and mine have.
Im not sure if it has to have anything else to be a hybino or if it has to come from his stock.
Thats why I said I wonder LOL
Ayways very nice leo!

hypo albino = hybino. it's hard to tell whats hybino and whats not for me, if you follow that 10 spots or less rule.

I don't know who coined the term hybino but I don't think anyone has a true hybino yet it is still a project being worked on. Check out http://www.amgecko.com/breeders.html for a picture of some of the closest I've seen I would love to see a super hybino (I guess that's what they'd call it)it would be almost solid orange except for the tail and head and even that could be breed out. The lighter colors of the albinos lend themselves perfectly to making the brightest oranges around. AM originally reffered to this project as Patternless tang albinos but this would be confusing because while there is no pattern these geckos are not patternless and don't carry the gene.

on ray hines site there is a pic of what looks like a true hybino to me. it has just a few spots, i havent looked in a while though, so im not sure how many spots. im about 90% sure it is less then 10.

This is a girl I just got. She is way way more orange than the pic. I hope she turns out as nice as all the other ones posted. Best part, I only paid $24.99. Pet Co. had no idea what they had for sale. Every one that sees her wants her! I am so excited to have her and to see what she will look like when older. She has all orange on her lips and eye lids. She flames orange when outside.
