I was given permission to publish this photo, she is stunning. I hope the trait can be carried and reproduced. She is part of a breeding project, so hopefully we will see more of these in the trade one day.

What a beauty! I've seen pictures of a hypo before. I think it's the same animal (circulating around a gecko forum???)

I see red eyes! Looks more amel than hypo, but can't really tell all that well.

I had to do some research before posting that. Hypo is T+ and Amel is T-, however they're both still albinos and should have red eyes. But the problem I have is that it seems most "hypos" I've seen don't have red eyes.

edit: some, not most, I don't see to many hypos personally, not by that name anyways.

They kinda both have the same eye's... but that is one sweet sav colour, would love too see more of them produced. Thanks for sharing, Caylan.S.

Genetic anomalies exist in all living things.

I like the blue tongue.
Also, the bigger one has the same red eyes.

I really like that sav. I hope that animal turns out to be genetic.

How do they plan to breed it out?? Aren't Sav's incredibly hard to breed in captivity? Their eggs come out infertile?

She is pictured with the male, so it will probably be 2 generations before we see results.

It IS difficult, but not impossible, The guy who owns them is a Monitor breeder, so I would like to have some faith that this may produce more like her.
