Hey,

I'm no expert in this department, but I'm pretty confident that no, you cannot successfully breed a Leopard Gecko to another species, even if they are similar. Maybe someone else can give you more details. Take care.

I've heard of people trying Leos to AFT and getting them to actually breed, but nothing ever hatched (if they were even fertile... I think most, if not all, were infertile). Even if you COULD... you should think about the SHOULD. In the reptile world, where even inter-locale breeding is considered evil (take panther chameleons for example), you'd be ripped apart for ever considering or, or worse, trying it. Many people feel very strongly about the topic and I'd avoid it all together.
