THE SELECTION CREYACHT

CODE LINECREYACHT CODE LINE

Which geckos
earn the name CODE?

Built on quadstripes,
CODE is the top-tier Normal line selectively bred by CREYACHT.

Pinstriping, drippy, white spots and a well-balanced build are the foundation. Each gecko must also have a character of its own. And that character needs to carry through to the next generation. That, too, is part of earning the name CODE.

01 BEHIND THE NAME

A name for that refinement.

The refinement we seek in Normals,
in Axanthic and Chocho, too.

CODE is a line name used alongside a morph.
Whatever the morph, we look for individual character, a balanced build
and a lineage that passes on desirable traits well.

02 APPEARANCE & TRAITS

The traits and details
that define CODE.

Pinstriping · quadstripes · drippy · white spots.
These four traits form the foundation.

We assess that foundation through six broad characteristics,
selecting geckos whose finer details express individual character.

The foundation is shared.
The expression is different in every gecko.

Six defining characteristics.
Details unique to each gecko.

  1. 01

    Dorsal pattern

    Broad dorsal coverage, marbling, tiger-like markings. The pattern across the back takes a different form in each gecko.

  2. 02

    Pin density

    Dense, closely connected pinstriping. Even here, the shape and expression of each individual pin can vary.

  3. 03

    Quad shape

    Quad walls may flow in waves or form a solid wall. Others run straight, with white spots spreading around them.

  4. 04

    Trait thickness

    Substantial expression in the pins, quads and pattern. Where that thickness and definition are strongest changes the impression of the whole gecko.

  5. 05

    A balanced build

    A balanced build that complements the traits. Silhouettes differ, but overall proportion and harmony remain essential.

  6. 06

    Drippy and white spots

    The shape and extent of drippy and white spots. The way they complement the other traits adds to each gecko’s individual character.

These six characteristics describe CODE in broad terms.
No two Normals are alike.
The finer details can take many different forms.

CREYACHT HATCHLINGS

Desirable traits carry through.
Each gecko expresses them differently.

One clutch. Beautiful traits in both.

These two hatched from the same clutch.
Desirable traits carry through in both, showing the kind of consistency CODE strives for.

This, too, is a Normal.

White spots extend both above and below clearly defined quad lines.
Together with the mocha tones of the head, they create a fresh, unexpected look for a Normal.

On that foundation,
color and individuality.

From this foundation, CREYACHT breeds for color and refines the details,
bringing out each gecko’s individual character.

Beauty you notice at first glance.
Refinement you discover up close.
We seek both, in every individual expression.

03 LINEAGE & BREEDING

Beauty should not end
with one gecko.

Beautiful parents make you look forward to their hatchlings.
At CREYACHT, those expectations
are tested against actual breeding results.

AN ACTUAL BREEDING RESULT

Inheriting their strengths,
growing even more beautiful.

Miel is the offspring of Rasputin and Hamo.
Inheriting the best of both parents, Miel has grown even more beautiful than Rasputin.

More than
a beautiful beginning.

A normal’s colors and markings can change considerably as it matures. Without having watched many individuals grow, it can be difficult to picture what comes next from their early appearance alone.

Our aim for CODE is normals that grow more beautiful with age.

We select with their mature appearance in mind, seeking beauty that goes beyond the hatchling stage.

HOW WE SELECT THE CODE LINE

Select the appearance.
Then look to the next generation.

  1. Select for appearance

    Pinstriping, quads, drippy and white spots
    A balanced build
    Distinctive individual strengths

  2. Examine the hatchlings

    In the second and third generations, we look for traits that carry through well and strong overall quality.

  3. Select lines that carry it forward

    Strong expression. High trait consistency.
    The lines that demonstrate these qualities guide our next breeding decisions.

Beautiful to look at, but unable to pass on those desirable traits well?

We do not continue breeding that gecko.
Appearance alone does not make CODE.We also look at how well it carries into the next generation.
So you can find what you loved in the parents
in their hatchlings, too.

We look back through parents, grandparents and earlier generations.
We also examine the actual second- and third-generation hatchlings.

How consistently do the desirable traits reappear?
How good is the hatchlings’ overall quality?
Those results shape the next breeding decisions.

CODE LINE

A beautiful gecko leaves an impression.The CODE line elevates your breeding program.

We have selected beautiful expression and looked for it again in actual second- and third-generation hatchlings.
That is how we build a line that is not easily recreated.
