I’m looking at purchasing another baby crested from a local breeder. They just told me that the baby is an extreme harlequin tiger. Is it even possible to be both a Tiger and a harlequin?

Yes it is possible. It’s recently been found that tiger is like a hidden gene in some Geckos, I say hidden but u can usually tell, it’s just most ppl ignore it as it’s recent discovery and certain traits make it harder to see (like pinstripe).
That being said, do u have pics? I find most reptile shops I’ve been to don’t actually know the correct traits.

I wouldn’t class as extreme. I’d say it’s a tiger harlequin dalmatian.
It’s a cute lil gecko as pet, but not one I’d breed due to spots and possible small head structure, but that’s just me

Harlequin with tiger trait yes, and Dal spots it looks like too?
Are you looking to breed?

I posted the wrong one. The last fired down picture I posted is the gecko I was referring to

I agree harlequin with tiger trait. It’s hard to tell but looks to have dal spots also. Head structure also didn’t look great, but could change with age depending on what the parents look like.
Doesn’t appear to be extreme
