Genetics questions you were afraid to ask...

[LEOPARD GECKO CRAZY]

super snow male x shtct female ??

[Jon2ooo8]

50% mack snow and 50% mack hypo aka 1st gen cremsicle, mack ghost lol has alot of names for 1 morph

[tigger79]

bumble bee royal to normal royal

[Ssthisto]

Bumblebee to normal:

25% chance normal not spider or pastel.
25% chance spider not pastel
25% chance pastel not spider
25% chance bumblebee (pastel spider)

Are Ron Trempers Bold Bandit leopard gecko selectively bred normals???

If so, would two bred together create a chance of just getting normal babies or are there other genetics behind them? As I would love to be able to produce some of bandits as they are stunning.

Designer Leopard Geckos These are what I am looking at.

Ron Tremper describes the trait "Bandit" as simple recessive.

However, I would like to see someone independent (not Ron Tremper) prove that out because he originally sold "het for giants" before he'd tested to find out what mode of inheritance Giant had - so he sold normals for very highly inflated prices.

Ok. Would I be write in thinking that they are technically normals and were made from selectively breeding jungles?

Not if its a recessive gene.

IF "Bandit" is a recessive gene, then no, a visual bandit is not a normal. It is homozygous for a recessive, non-wildtype gene.

However, until someone proves sufficiently that "Bandit" IS a recessive gene I would not like to say for certainty that they absolutely aren't normals with selective breeding behind them.
