When you breed two jungles together, how often are the offspring jungles? I'm just curious because I bred a jungle to a very high aberrant (nearly jungle except for tail) and their first clutch just hatched both banded. i'm just wondering if this is ordinary, or if you normally get a higher ratio...thanks Here are the parents and the babies:

is it possible as the baby grows for the bands to, um, disband? or will it DEFINITELY be banded? thanks for pointing that out btw

I think most jungles are born with broken patterns, but it is possible for the bands to brake up into a dif. pattern. I am not totally sure because I have never hatched jungle albinos...

Josh had a great point, also, the top baby gecko has a broken up head-band. I don’t think there is a ‘het for jungle’ myself, but I would say that your geckos carry genes that would be conducive to producing jungle babies.
I doubt the bands will change much as the gecko ages. The bands may change color or speckle, but the outlines normally stay the same. Thx for the cool pix!

Here is my fav albino female, Peggy:

I haven't been working with the jungle albinos, but the normal jungles...All of the jungles on my site were produced from jungle to jungle breeding. Of course almost all of my normals were also produced from the same group. Jungles are just unpredictable, one of those phases that are bred just to see what comes out

Nice looking babies btw,

I outcrossed my jungles and stripes to bell albinos (banded) this year. I observed about a 25% rate of hatching jungles or stripes from these pairings.

Just an interesting bit of information for anyone else working with jungles/stripes. I'd love to hear statistics from anyone else as well.

For people breeding jungle x jungle and not getting all jungles, what are you getting? any stripes?

For people breeding stripe x stripe what are you getting?

Stripe x Jungle?

Stripe x Normal?

Jungle x Normal?
