some sound really nice mixes, but i would have a few queries.

1) a leo may be 4 -5 inches long but how do you know the health of it without basic info such as weight?

2) i've not heard of a dalmation leo, thought that was for cresties? may they mean a TUG snow or super snow or something? I could be totally wrong of course.

not judging the seller or site, these are just things that popped into my head as i read your post.

good luck

viz
A dalmation leopard gecko is a Super Snow Enigma... The way the Enigma gene works with the Super Snow pattern makes the spotting random and give it a dalmation look...

To answer the OPs question, what you buy all depends on the over all look you want to achieve from your breeding project...

And TUG stands for The Urban Gecko... They are a breeder based out of Canada... Many of us here in the US have TUG bloodlines in our collection...

The Rainwater or Las Vegas is one of 3 different albino strains... The three strains of albinos are not compatable...
This means if you breed a Rainwater to a Tremper, you will not get any albinos from the pairing... Babies will be normals double het for Tremper and Rainwater albino...

It is generally frowned on to mix albino strains...
