Tremper Albino
Gene
Tremper Albino is one of the oldest and most widely used albino strains in leopard geckos. As a recessive morph, it reduces black pigment and produces animals with softer brown, lavender, yellow, or orange markings rather than the dark spotting of wild type geckos. Tremper Albino is genetically separate from Bell Albino and Rainwater Albino, even when adult colors look similar, and it forms the base for many combination projects such as RAPTOR and some Sunglow lines.
Tremper Albinos need standard leopard gecko housing, but many keepers use gentle lighting and plenty of shaded cover because albino eyes can be light-sensitive. Breeding requires careful strain tracking. Crossing different albino strains without clarity can produce normal-looking offspring that carry incompatible recessive traits and confuse later projects. For pet buyers, the important questions are whether the gecko eats well, sheds cleanly, has clear eyes, and comes with an honest explanation of its albino background.
