Thinking about getting this guy. What do you guys think?

What questions should I be asking the breeder?

I would like to use him a breeding project for sun glows because that is my preference. However, I would like to produce something way lighter than he is now. Still new to the genetic lingo.2234B349-B687-4628-9DDE-3A522725CC7D.jpg

Have the breeder tell you what the parents were. If it's het raptor, then one of the parents should be an eclipse and if it's possible het giant then one of the parents should have been a giant. Be sure this gecko is really an albino. I can see the beige coloring on the head, but in the picture, the tail spots look black. Maybe they're really dark brown, but if they're black then the gecko is not an albino.

If he’s not an albino is that a bad thing? I really like the albino trempers also. But if he’s a sunglow he would have some albino in him right?

Make sure he have het albino. It is Not a bad thing, but when it's not het albino, you wont get sunglow.
Btw hope you enjoy for your sunglow project. ��������������������

Nice ! Do you have an Instagram or Facebook showing pics of your projects?

Also, I really like that albino tremper coloring, like where the color is faded out.

If it's an albino, it's a sunglow, which is essentially a super hypo albino. If it's not an albino, it's not a sunglow, but you could produce sunglows if the gecko is het for albino and if you breed it to an albino or a het albino.
