Lineage is almost everything. A first generation red crestie that popped up randomly has less chances of producing red babies than a brown crestie that has an extensive and good quality red lineage. That's why people (including me) care so much about lineage, and so should everyone that is interested in breeding cresties
I was just talking about this the other day with my buddy. On my channel, I have a dal female that doesn’t look the most amazing but she produces the most amazing babies, no matter who she’s paired with. I have 2 grow out babies of hers that I keep posting about (Oakley and squishy) because they look so nice
Can I just say that you are the 1st person that has made COMPLETE sense with explaining the importance of lineage to where I could follow along and not feel as though I needed to have a degree in biology to understand what is being said... GREAT VIDEO!!!!
Yes! Guy in my thumbnail cost me more than my first car! Now granted I bought that car back in 1986 but still. But even though I paid for the lineage and the look I wouldn't trade this mean little son of a gun for anything. I don't even plan on breeding him, but I absolutely adore him.
Me personally I took a shot this year. I mixed a red patternless (real patternless) with some dots and paired her to a brindle super dal. And his parents was both brindle super dal's so I'm thinking it will be brown with dots but who knows. First clutch of geckos for me
Great video! I am currently raising up two babies right now. One is a harlequin who's dad was a harlequin and I can't remember what his mom was, but I'll have to look back on it, and the other one is a brindle who's mom was a harlequin pinstripe and dad was a quad stripe (the breeder said quad blade, but I've never heard of that and figured he meant quad stripe). They look quite different, so I'm not 100% sure if they would be a good pairing (or even if I'll end up with a 1.1. pair lol), but since they both have harlequin it might be a nice pairing. I'm pretty new to what pairing work out best pattern wise, so I'm trying to soak up all the knowledge I can while these babies grow out. What is the difference between "brindle" and "tiger"? I've always wondered what the difference was.
My first pair of geckos I had no clue what linage was. They have produced some gorgeous geckos but now I don’t buy a gecko without linage unless it’s an absolutely beautiful animal for a great price.
I've got a 5g crested gecko with 126 spots (yes I'm a nerd and counted multiple times haha). But I've got two males and a female that are breeding weight and not sure which male to match with the female 🙄
If you're going to breed high-end super Dalmatians or any other kind of high-end patterns you want lineage all the way, more value for your babies more value in your older adults if you want to sell them that are RTB, I mean when you're putting out confetti super Dalmatians with lineage on both sides, I mean what more do you want in an animal you get what you pay for, that's the ultimate truth!
The analogy I think of for the ugly gecko, the nerdy kinda cute girl that you take to the dance often later because the most beautiful women in the room, haha 👍

First year breeding and yes lineage is very important. Especially when you start chasing firsts.
Great video! Thanks Dakota!

Congrats on your first clutch 🤟

Another great video. I definitely buy geckos with lineage now. It makes a difference.
Nice video!
Thank you!
Do basically recessive and dominant genes. Recessive can produce all different morphs where the dominant gene is a guarante.
I can’t seem to find the answer to this with a google search - is the tiger/brindle gene dominant, co-dominant or recessive?
My first pair of geckos I had no clue what linage was. They have produced some gorgeous geckos but now I don’t buy a gecko without linage unless it’s an absolutely beautiful animal for a great price.
