Welfare-flagged traits
These traits carry documented welfare concerns. The flag is informational — it does not change calculator math, but it surfaces on the public profile of any animal expressing the trait.
- Enigmalethal super
Enigma geckos have Enigma Syndrome — a neurological condition causing head wobble, circling, disorientation, and stargazing (looking up). Every Enigma has it; severity varies between individuals. The condition is permanent. Some breeders avoid producing Enigma for ethical reasons.
- Lemon Frost
Lemon Frost geckos are prone to skin tumours (iridophoroma), confirmed by genetic research in 2021. Homozygous (Super) Lemon Frost are particularly affected and often have shortened lifespans. The condition develops over time and can be disfiguring.
