just because i have to much time on my hands.... i was thinking about breeding Charm some day... (probably not for a long time, for one i think my landlord would kill me and also she is very young still and i heard you should wait until they are around 3 years?) anyways i was wondering what morph would be the best to breed charm with. ( i was told she is a tremper jungle by some one on here, i forget who tho cause i am awful like that XD ) i doubt she would make anything special cause she isn't rare but if any one knows what morph would be a good mate for her and what type of morphs she would make that would be helpful. thanks guys here is a pic of her in case you need it.

They can breed at over 50g and a year old.

A good rule of thumb for a good mate is the exact same morph plus one more gene.

So if yours is a Jungle Tremper, you should breed her with a Jungle Tremper, with one more gene.
For exmaple a Mack Snow Jungle Tremper.

This minimizes hets and daft silly pairings with daft silly outcomes. But at the same time it progress's the project rather than getting the same thing every time.

Definitely stay Tremper as Jordan said, that way you keep the clean tremper genetics. What you want to add on top of it, what you want to enhance, that you have some choices.

If you want to get into the Snows, get a Mack Snow Tremper Albino.

If you want to enhance the yellow/orange coloring, get a Tremper Sunglow or a Tangerine Tremper Albino.

If you want to work some stripes or bands into your projects, look into albinos with those specific patterns.

If you want to be bold and want to work into a RAPTOR project (red eyes), and understand it'll take a couple of years to do so, then get a RAPTOR and breed the offsprings together in your 2nd year for a chance at RAPTORs and APTORs.

Before breeding understand the amount of space the hatchlings need, and how much they'll eat and the amount of time it takes to take care of them. One single female can pump out 10-20 eggs a season. That's a lot of geckos.

Good luck! just wondering 131791

Just make sure you don't mix the albino genes - it is a big no no. So do not mate her with a bell or rainwater albino, even a HET.
