Super Sable Crested Gecko

Super Sable is the two-copy form of Sable; it appears viable but is thinly documented, so breeders check nostril openings at hatch.

Pairing two Sables gives about 25% Super Sable, and so does Luwak x Luwak. Super Sables appear viable, unlike Super Lilly White, and no pattern of health problems has been documented, but published records are few. Because Sable is widely reported to share a gene with Cappuccino, whose super form has serious nostril problems, the community norm is to check nostril openings at hatch on any super in this group. A Super Sable bred to a normal gives only Sable babies, which is how a breeder can prove one.

Super Sable x Cappuccino gives Luwaks and Sables, about half each, and never a super, under the one-gene model.

Inheritance: Incomplete dominant. Category: Color modifier. Rarity: rare.

Key features

Two copies of Sable
Appears viable, but thinly documented
Bred to a normal, every baby is a Sable

How to tell it apart

Sable: One copy also gives dark, reduced-pattern tones; one copy versus two is hard to see, so use the parents.
Luwak: A Luwak has one Sable copy and one Cappuccino copy.
