The goal of this group is to create, through community involvement, an empirical study of phenotypic inheritance in Crested Geckos. Submitted data will be analyzed by administrators and published weekly for community feedback. Assuming the continued success of the project, incentives may eventually be available for those that contribute on a long term or in depth basis. Eventually, we hope to have enough information to publish an "unofficial" analysis of the heritability of phenotypic features in Crested Geckos!
In order to gain a better understanding of Crested Gecko genetics what we need most is volume. As many geckos, with as much lineage as possible. These are the geckos we're looking for:
-Geckos with documented lineage (the farther back, the better!)
-Geckos with known siblings (both full and half!)
-Geckos with offspring (adult offspring is a bonus! as is grand-offspring!)
-Geckos with low Filial generation (please include fGen if known!)
-Geckos with parthenogenetic conception (no pics of dad required, obviously )
-Geckos with unique "oddball" characteristics (lineage and/or progeny are bonuses, but not required if the animal is unique)
If you have an animal, or group of animals which fits those criteria... AWESOME! We'd love to see them! Please join us, and don't forget to have fun!
