Description
This Striped 100% het. Amel ph Patternless African Fat Tail Gecko is an adult female ready for your breeding project or collection. She combines the clean, reduced dorsal pattern of the Striped morph with the genetics to produce Amelanistic and Patternless offspring. We’ve carried this specific genetic combination since late 2024, and it has become a consistent reorder item due to its popularity with both new and established breeders. A solid, healthy animal for advancing your AFT genetics.
Stand-Out Features
- Proven Genetics: 100% heterozygous for both Amelanistic and Patternless traits, making her a key breeder for producing double-morph offspring.
- Striped Morphology: Exhibits the distinct, clean dorsal stripe and reduced lateral pattern characteristic of the Striped morph.
- Prime Breeding Age: Adult female, fully mature and ready for the breeding season with proper conditioning.
- Robust Health: African Fat Tails are known for their hardy nature and manageable care requirements compared to other gecko species.

Your Questions Answered
What does “100% het. Amel ph Patternless” mean?
This gecko is visually a Striped morph but carries one copy (heterozygous) of the recessive gene for Amelanism and is also “possible heterozygous” (ph) for the recessive Patternless gene. She is guaranteed to pass one of these genes to 50% of her offspring. Breeding her to a male expressing either trait can produce visual Amel, Patternless, or double-morph babies.
Is she ready to breed this season?
Yes. As an adult female weighing 7.1 oz, she is of prime breeding size and age. We recommend a short acclimation period in her new enclosure and proper nutritional conditioning prior to introduction with a male for optimal health and clutch results.
