Het for lecistic X luecistic...

If i bred my female leucistic to a het, what percentage would be leucistic? Also, who is a good breeder for a het? Thanks.

50% would be Leucistic and 50% would be hets. The breeder depends. If Leucistic really is a seperate trait than clear nailed hypo pastels than go with Dragons Den. If it is the same trait (as I suspect) there are many breeders who carry hypo pastels (Sandfire Dragon Ranch, Dachiu etc) but they are going to have more color on them while Dragons Den's dragons are going to be mostly white.

Several people that have breed leucistic to het have got all commons. This would indicate it is not a recessive trait. We are still waiting for someone to post pictures of the offspring that are leucistic

Rob had posted a while back about his baby leu's.........but I dont remember if there were any pics included of het breedings. Exactly what you said is what I have been waiting for as well..........I have yet to see or hear of someone producing "leucistic dragons" from so called hets. Only have heard of failures. Hmmmmmmmm, I only wonder. Chris
