Mandarin is a very high end line of tangerine known to produce the most orangy/red toned leopard geckos on the market along with deep green pigments popping out in the linage especially when combined with bold, inferno, or other emerine lines. It is a staple project of what we do here at Geeky Gecko Creations, using it to bring out the best oranges, reds, and greens out of many projects! :D

Inferno is a classically popular line of tangerine which focuses on intense oranges and is known to carry bright emerine greens in the offspring. A fantastic line of tangerine to cross into any project!

Eclipse is one of the oldest and most popular traits among leopard gecko morphs. Used to make Pandas, Pieds, RAPTORS, Diablo Blancos, Snow Combos, White & Yellow combos, and more, it is pretty much a staple in all leopard gecko collections. It is characterized by a reduction in color saturation as well as eye pigment alteration in 3 main types:
1) Partial eye shading (aka marbling)
2) Half Eye Shading (aka Snake Eyes)
3) Full Eye Shading (aka full eclipse)

Emerine is a bright green color that you will find comes through on certain lines such as tangerine, bold, w&y, and clown. Most green color will start richly around one month old and may fade as the gecko ages. However, white & yellow seems to hold the green color most into adulthood.

There are 2 primary forms of Red Stripe leopard geckos. We have a video on our YouTube channel clearly showing both here: https://youtu.be/fmUWNGDhsoA?si=wyvciMKz2zjqx6PH

Form 1: two thin bright Red/Orange lines straddling the top center of the geckos back moving down the spine towards the geckos tail

Form 2: two thick orange stripes straddling each lateral side of the geckos near the shoulders moving down towards the geckos tail

Most of the time form 1 is seen in pure tangerine morphs and form 2 is seen in tangerine crosses.
