Nice looking hets for tremper albino. The babies would likely look similar to a cross between a normal and a hypo, but would be het for albino.

You would get babies that are all het for Tremper Albino, unless the carrot tail is het for Tremper Albino, then you would get some normal/carrottail Albinos and some het for Albino. As far as colors go you would probably get normal to high yellow offspring with little dots of orange.

Do you get what I mean? If you need more explanation just ask.

Yea i can understand, so would it be better to just breed my trempor albino pair for now and just wait till i get a male hypo tang carrot tail?

It depends. If you want to produce Tremper Albinos, then breed your pair. As far as hypo tangerines go, you would probably still get high yellow hets with a little bit of orange. What I think you want to do is breed your Tremper Albino to a hypo tangerine and produce all hets for Tremper Albino, then breed those hets to other Tremper Albino hets, which are also half hypo tangerine. You would then be producing Tangerine Tremper Albinos and Tangerine Tremper Albino hets. The hets would look pretty much like hypo tangerines and the Albinos would be beautiful tangerine albinos.

After you do all that you start over with your Tangerine Albinos and breed them to more Tangerines and repeat the process. If you do that over a period of 3 to 5 years you would be producing some awesome Tangerine Albinos, you just have to make sure you are working with high quality tangerine bloodlines. Or you could just purchase Tangerine Albinos and do it the easy way. Either way you have to have patience or money.

Sorry the answer is so long,

hypos cant be hets. If you bred the tremp albino to a hypo tang the babies might BE NORMAL het albino. If you breed two high yellows together you might get normals. Tang is line bred. so there is no rule to seeing what babies you get.

But if you breed two geckos together that each have at least one parent that is a full red/orange tangerine. You will get geckos that are more red/orange than normal and when you add that to the genetic albino trait you can't really tell that there is normal in there.
