Do Tokays breed year round? Also what would you get if you crossed a blue powder to a normal?

Thank you

In my experience, they will breed year round if given the opportunity.

The genetics of the various color and pattern morphs are still being worked out, but powder blue appears to be a simple recessive trait. If that is the case, then powder blue to normal will yield 100% normals that are het for powder blue.

I was thinking only once a year, I am suprised that they are not the new craze, like retics with theirs colors. They seem really cool. I just wonder how many more different colors there will be.

There will be many new colors. The genetics of many of them (and whether or not they are genetic) are still being worked out. Like, for example, this Yellow-Spotted Melanistic:

That is cool looking. I totally forgot about them until this month in the reptil mag and then was like oh ya. I remember seeing them a couple years ago at the Tinley Show in IL and thought they where stuffed animals and never looked back.
