I know i asked this (similar) question a further down...

LizardLuva Nov 02, 2003 05:12 PM

but i was wondering about breeding color combinations with leos, i was thinking what a could get for a total of less than 60$ for a pair, (same or diff colors) like an albino and _____, or sumthing of that matter....thanks for everyones help in advance, i hope to become a good breeder.

P.S. why it cant b over that amount, i have a fund i have been saving (im only a teen) thats about 75$ from the last month, so i have a slow, but steady income, and can get finacial aide if im trouble with my parents.

Look in the classifieds section of kingsnake.com, they have pairs and such that you can buy. I don't know exactly what type you wont, but some can be reasonable.

Hope this helps a little....

Breeding a Albino with anything other than the same type of Albino like Tremper, Bell, Rainwater will result in normal looking babies that could be het for Albino. So if you want to breed Albinos get 2 Trempers, 2 Bells or 2 Rainwaters. Mixing the diff Albinos will result in normal babies also. Hope that helped.

If you intend to breed your geckos, and you like the albinos, I would suggest getting two tremper albinos. There is a great diversity to the tremper line, colors/patterns/etc. You should be able to find a pair in your price range. Try to get a pair that are not closely related (for genetic diversity), and if possible, purchase them from the same breeder (to keep shipping costs down). You can find plenty of breeders on the classifieds, or even on this forum. Best of luck, and let us know how it goes.

thanks, i will probably get them at a local monthly expo, what are some other combinations that to get the parents arent as expensive as the babies, (i.e. would tangerine and super hypo fit my range?) thanks again!

i have been looking into very light colored tangerine, most likely bought at an expo, anyone know about the average price for a pair of juveniles? Thanks again.

I don't think you will get any "nice" tangerines for $60. That's some pretty limited funds, and I'd suggest, instead of rushing into breeding, save up some more money, and get something you really want. You have plenty of time. If you get hatchlings now, they won't breed next season anyway, so you should wait and get something nicer, and older, so you can breed in 2005.

Well sit right down my wicked son
And let me tell you a story
About the boy who fell from glory
And how he was a wicked son

This ain't no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am with my hand

He took his sister from his head
And then painted her on the sheets
And then rolled her up in grass and trees
And they kissed 'till they were dead

This ain't no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am, with my hand

Well sit right down my evil son
And let me tell you a story
About the boy who fell from glory
And how he was a wicked son

This ain't no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am, with my hand

This ain't no holiday
But it always turns out this way
Here I am, with my hand
