Whiteout Crested Gecko
A Whiteout crested gecko carries the Whiteout trait documented by AC Reptiles, reported as incomplete dominant, which adds white along the sides and back.
Whiteout adds white expression along the flanks and back. AC Reptiles reports it as incomplete dominant, on a different gene from Lilly White, with a Super Whiteout that is healthy and freely breedable. That would make Whiteout a way to stack white without risking Lilly White's lethal two-copy form. AC Reptiles' own breeding records are the main documentation, and much of the hobby still treats white walling as line-bred, so Geck Inspect badges Whiteout Emerging: reported, not independently proven. When the genetics calculator reads a collection, a White Wall tag counts as Whiteout.
Documented by AC Reptiles (Anthony Caponetto), whose Whiteout page is the main source.
Whiteout x Lilly White cannot make a lethal super, because they are separate genes in this model. A Lilly White Whiteout still carries one Lilly White copy, so never pair it to another Lilly White.
Inheritance: Incomplete dominant. Category: Structure. Rarity: rare.
Key features
- White expression on the sides and back
- Reported incomplete dominant, so one copy is visible
- A separate gene from Lilly White
How to tell it apart
- White Wall: White Wall is the visual label for this kind of lateral white; Geck Inspect reads a White Wall tag as Whiteout, but a photo alone does not prove the gene.
- Lilly White: Lilly White is a different gene with a lethal super form; white on the sides alone does not tell them apart.
Frequently asked questions
What is a Whiteout crested gecko?
A Whiteout crested gecko carries the Whiteout trait documented by AC Reptiles, reported as incomplete dominant, which adds white along the sides and back.
What does a Whiteout crested gecko look like?
A typical Whiteout crested gecko shows these features: white expression on the sides and back; reported incomplete dominant, so one copy is visible; a separate gene from Lilly White.
How do I identify a Whiteout crested gecko?
To identify a Whiteout crested gecko, check these points: check both flanks and the back; ask for the AC Reptiles lineage behind a Whiteout label; lateral white alone is not proof.
What is the difference between Whiteout and White Wall?
White Wall is the visual label for this kind of lateral white; Geck Inspect reads a White Wall tag as Whiteout, but a photo alone does not prove the gene.
How is Whiteout inherited?
Whiteout is classified as incomplete dominant. Single copy produces a visible form; two copies produce a distinct "super" form. The most common inheritance model in proven crested gecko morphs. This rests mainly on AC Reptiles' breeding records; much of the hobby still treats white walling as line-bred.
What other morphs combine with Whiteout?
Whiteout is often combined with Lilly White, Soft Scale and Axanthic.
Who discovered or first produced Whiteout crested geckos?
Documented by AC Reptiles (Anthony Caponetto), whose Whiteout page is the main source.
