hello,

i was just curious if it is ok or even a good idea to use an iguana hammock for a leopard gecko that is a sub-adult.....i know that they like to climb but i wasnt sure if this was a wise decision or not....so if anyone has any advice please reply to this message....thank you very much!!!

Leos are mainly terrestrial, but I have observed my leos climbing on top of their humid hides, logs, and driftwood I put in their cages. So, I think that as long as the hammock is positioned in a slope, not a steep drop, they should like it. (My female, Mimosa, has even taken to "hanging out" on the vents on the sides of her cage!! )

ok thanks a lot i appreciate it a lot...i also have a question about breeding.... well more less what the babies will look like if i breed a snow leo with a high leo...what colors do the babies take on more? the fathers or the mothers?

It has nothing to with "Father"/"Mother" inheritance. It is "Recessive"/"Dominant" inheritance. Go here www.geckogenetics.com to figure out the prercentage of any type of breeding.

But the way I understand it (someone correct me if I am wrong) that a snow is nothing more than a "Super Hypo Pastel" of sorts. Just less yellow. So crossing a "Less Yellow" with a "High Yellow" animal, more or less, you would get washed out High yellows, or "C" Grade Snows.
