NEW Rhacodactylus auriculatus morph

[Sascha]

Hello,
a lot of people know my successful long year breeding project "High Red - Svatek line", but what I show you now is very special and new. I´ve never seen this very phantastic morph in Rhacodactylus auriculatus. Maybe you can help me to give this morph a name.

Damn thats a good looking little gecko.....sorry Im no good with names, Im gonna take a guess that these will be pretty expensive when they become available one day!!

Very beautiful, well done. Have seen nothing like it here in the U.S. With the scalation and color gradients, their patterns look like that of a moth or butterfly. Also, the pattern resembles a Burmese python to a degree. I'm not suggesting a name really, just an observation.

Wow it looks amazing! Indeed like a butterfly.... Not good with names either, but maybe papillon (the French word for butterfly), or checkered, or tartan.....

Very pretty markings, can't help with name sorry

Hello,
thanks for replay!!!!!

Ashton, yes it looks like some kind of python.

Debby, It´s a good idea I like papillon.

kind regards
Sascha

Here is another morph which I´m working. I love the black and white R.auriculatus and I breed for high contrast.

Here is one of my best.

Nice animals .
In my opninion it is just a nice stripe for now . It is still young and the pattern can change by the time it is adult . to be talking of a new morph is too soon because it is not proven to be geneticly determined .

Striped mosaic. I've hatched out a few banded mosaics before. Here's a pic of my favorite one from 2009:

Unfortunately it's not recessive, but it has been hypothesized that it could be line bred for. Other than myself, I know Philippe de Vosjoli has hatched some out, but as of the last time I talked to him about them it was not a regular occurrence.

Nice gecko either way, and the wide white stripes are phenomenal looking!

Hello Rob D´heu,
I know this is fortunate coincidence and changing colour/markings are possible, but I hope (lots of my Gargs show more contrast in aduld age) this markings to become manifest. If more of these hatch I will work hard to reproduce until it´s geneticly dominant. Maybe dreams come true

kind regards

Hello Kevin,
very nice "oddball hatchlings", I like them very much. I´m agree with you - the only way is line bred.

kind regards
Sascha
