Help identifying phase

[MartinW]

Can someone help me out identifying what type of leos these are? I've always assumed they were normals when I got them around a month ago, but some people have said they might be something else. They're the first and only geckos I have owned, but they have 6 eggs in the incubator:)

A month and eggs already? Congrats dude! Ummm... my *ahem* guess is that Dotty and Cujo are normals... Circe could be a high yellow... then again, Cujo almost looks like a 'wild' phase. Well, to me, anyway :P

[Alicewave]

They all look normal. Circe would be considered high yellow by some but not all.

[SnowSnake]

Yup, they are all normals. But I like Cujo a lot!! She is very dark!
Great leos martin!

[MartinW]

Yeah, Cujo's pretty cool, but she hides a lot. I like Circe a lot though, you can't tell from the picture but she looks really goofy:) Cujo's been coming out a bit more lately. She seems to like to hide up in the leaves of my fake palm tree. Dotty is the most tame one, the others jump when I touch them. I'm trying to pet them more to get them more comfortable with me.

first one normal. second one possibly and i stress possibly melanistic i would have to see a better pic cause i cant tell if thats shadows or what. and the 3rd one some people would say high yellow. just like alicewave said.

First one is a normal. second is most likely malanistic(the you go 157)and third looks like my pastels, who's babies are always really light when born. Though people have different ideas on pastels being a phase or not.

[SnowSnake]

If you always get pastel looking babies from pastel parents it could very probably be a co-dominant phase.

[Tim and Julie B]

hmm, that's a good point SnowSnake. I bred my hypo tang male to my other pastel female and they always produce hypo tang that are much lighter than the male. i suppose I'll keep them together for breeding since the babies are so pretty.:D

[SnowSnake]

keep a nice pastel male and breed him to your pastel females to see if it is a co-dom trait and start a new morph maybe :P

lol good luck with that!

later,
SnowSnake

P.S. Show us some pics!! hehe

tim and julie an antheristic is one with more white than usual ones that are darker then normal are called melanisitc youve got it mixed up i think

[Emily-Fisher]

No, geckoguy, she's right. In the photos, they all look like normals. Dotty is a really nice normal though ;)

she dosnet say there all normal and the midle one may be melanistic which means they would be darker than normal which the midle one is

[SnowSnake]

What would be really sweet is a anerytristic axantic leo!! That would be awsome!!

[geckoguy157]

ok my colour sense are realy messed up right now lol but i think anerytristic means lacks red pigment and axanthic means lacks black pigment so wouldnt that just be an albino i dont have my book with all my genetic's and colours in it so im just goin by memory so i mite be wrong
