Genetics question

Here's an easy one.

What is the origin of the exotic patterns and colors in leopard geckos? I am referring to the orange colors, striping vs. spotting of "wild" type, leucisism, and etc. Were the first ones naturally occuring mutations/variations or have breeders been inducing mutations? What methods/chemistry is used?

Thanks,

TD

Some mutations are recessive (Albino/Patternless/Blizzard/ETC), others are line bred (Tangerine/Carrottail/Jungle/ETC).

Line bred take generations about generations to create a particular color or pattern morph.

*Line bred take generation upon generation to create a particular color or pattern.
