Hey Guys

Was admiring one of my feeding machines and thought I'd post him.

Here he was 26grams on the 16April

Here he is now on 73grams on the 02Aug

Its just a variation of the simple recessive Blizzard gene. You get yellow-sided Blizzards, white-sided Blizzards, midnight Blizzards and electric yellow Blizzards. All of which are just variations of Blizzard.

I believe the EYB's produced by Animaniacs are actually a 3 gene combination, but exactly which 3 genes is Henry's secret.
Please go have a look at my facebook page

Yes that's correct, EYB are 3 gene combination of Blizzard and Murphy Patternless plus one more gene which is a Polygenetic Gene that Henry is still keeping secret to continue producing awesome animals. Cant wait to see what his making up next!

Well I've just got confirmation. It seems there are two "standards" as to what an Electric Yellow Blizzard really is. Henry's are indeed 3 genes, Murphy Patternless, Blizzard (as Johan said) and ______ . The one I'm talking about is Blizzard and a polygenic gene (a colour trait more than anything). Henry's will most certainly be more expensive that the latter, but you get a better quality gecko.

I would presume one of the three genes are from the white and yellow projects being bred in the states. Matt of Sasobek reptiles breeds them like crazy and his white and yellow Murphy's patternless' almost look identical to the Electric yellow blizzards. My electric yellows have dark eyes and I would take another guess in presuming eye pigment plays a Role with the Electric yellows.
This is just me guessing so if I am way off I am just guessing
