Re: [gecko]Deformed Leopard geckos

[Julie Bergman]

Paul, I seem to get dwarf leopards more than anything else. The next 
most common thing would be a tail kink, usually very slight. Lots of 
inbreeding has been done with leos and genetics are a good bet for some 
of these traits. An interesting note, the slight tail kink guys I have 
kept don't seem to produce any abnormal babies that I have noticed.

Hello all,

     I have seen some deformities cropping up in leopard geckos from a few
different breeders (ex. Tail Kink and Malformed Eyes.) Does anyone have a
thero of facts on what causes these deformities (ex. Incubation technique,
breeding or genetic?)
