    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I know this is probably a dumb question but i am getting real confused about it. What are all these different names of geckos and bearded dragons? super hypo, het for patternless,yellow citrus x normal and all the various others that I have seend. Can anyone shed some light on this for me. Thanks Tori
 
They are names describing a morph or phase. These are traits (usually having to do with appearence) that are genetic or someway traceable to the parents (ie breeding two similiar colored dragons will usually produce a baby of nearly the same color, though I don't believe it is as clearly defined as some of the genetic morphs in geckos).

Some of these terms are discriptive (ie hypo = hypomelanistic, patternless = without a defined pattern) while some are more of a marketing tool (citrus, sunburst, etc).

The "X" defines cross breeding two traits. So hypo X red dragon would be the breeding of a hypomelanistic male to a red phase female.

Hope this helps muddy the water ;)
 
Thank You!!!!

dwedeking thank you so much, that helped me out a whole lot now I think I understand a lot better than before, I am wanting to get into breeding geckos and bearded dragons and was just a little more than confused about the different morphs and names that were being used again much thanks.
