Foundation Genetics Lines
Lil Monsters Reptiles maintains breeding lines drawn from wild-caught imports, original Repashy-era foundation stock, and proven designer morphs. The focus is structure, wide dorsals, crest size, nose, and jawline.
Lil Monsters Reptiles' Foundation Genetics project is a multi-part documentation series and an active breeding program working from wild-caught lines, originally-imported lines (the 1995-1998 Repashy/de Vosjoli/Fast era), and proven designer morphs from across North America including several Canadian sources. The breeding focus is structural: wide dorsals, large crest, defined nose, strong jawline. The Foundation Genetics articles are a leading hobby-side resource for understanding crested gecko genetics from first principles.

How to identify the line
- Look at structure first: dorsal width, crest, jawline are the line's breeding focus
- Color and pattern vary widely; the line is not defined by a specific look
- Pedigree documentation is the surest identification path; FG-line animals typically come with named ancestors
