First, a group shot of an HG tang, Redstripe and RWs. The second pic shows that they all don't come out like that. The next decision is whether to line breed the RWs or to stretch it out another year and go tang to RW and Redstripe to RW, then het to het the next season. Any help would be appreciated.

Hmm....I can't give ya much advice on the breeding but I would say Line breed 'em. However that is just me. I'm glad you showed the not-so-tangy one to people. :) There is always a mix! Altho, how great would it be a treat to hatch out those really tangy ones, all the time?! :D

I say scrap the entire project.... And sell them in lots for not a lot of money.... and tell me when they go on sale before anyone else... yeah, that's the ticket!

Dan how orange were the first tangerines you bred? Like the ones you started off to produce those tangerines over the generations? Thats almost a complete red leopard gecko.

Are you kidding me!!!!!!!!!!!!! Those are some seriously AWESOME Geckos! I say do both as well, Line breed one or 2 groups and outcross the rest! And, then send the excess to me :)

WOW!!! Those seriously look like they came straight from a crayola coloring book. Amazing as always. With geckos looking like that I'd definately hold off a year and breed the tangs and red stripes to rainwater. ;)

Here are some from four seasons ago, then some from last year and a few more from this year. Two have had almost true red spots behind their heads that later turned an ugly dried blood color, you can see it on that one in the first pics. Maybe the albinos would look better. Thanks for the input, guys and gals.

Absolutely stunning! I say give it one more year and see how much more you can get the color to develop. Not that they aren't on fire already!

I think your RW's have enough color as it is. You seem to have more than enough skill to line breed them deeper so why outcross? Unless I've missed something you are way ahead of everyone else.
I can't wait to see what you have next season, WOW. I'ld love to get one of your HG Tangs, dang pesky mortgage.
