Crested Gecko : Lilly White




A Lilly White crested gecko is a high white crested gecko. The tail will be solid white from the base to the tip with no breakage when looking at the tail from a top view and the eyes will be a silvery grey colour.


Lilly white is one of the first recognized gene variants to occur within the captive-bred population. Lilly white morph is develeped by Lily Exotic. This morph was one of the most expensive morph when it came out first, and now even beginners can get them because of price drop. (of couse they are still much more expensive than regular crested gecko)


In general, Lilly white gets more cover of white patches after they grow up.












Lilly white is very pretty looking crested gecko morph but this morph has an issue. This genetic type can't breed between Lilly white to Lilly white. However, pairing a Lilly White to a non-Lilly White gecko should result in Lilly White and non-Lilly White offspring.



Some breeders tried to make super form with lilly whites, but all of super form babies can't survive.

This calls lethal alleles in biological term. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lethal_allele#:~:text=Lethal%20alleles%20(also%20referred%20to,the%20gene%20or%20genes%20involved.








Lilly white gene can be manifest with other traits such as phantom, axanthic, cappuccino, and sable.

Lilly white trait gives such a nice white coloration add to other traits.


Phantom + Lilly white = Phantom Lilly White

Axanthic + Lilly white = Lilly White Axanthic

Cappuccino + Lilly white = Frappuccino

Sable + Lilly white = Sable Lilly White


Here is the number of cases

Percentage calculation is based on one egg.


1.Lilly white + Normal

  • 50% : Lilly White

  • 50% : Normal


2.Lilly white + Cappuccino

  • 25% : Frappuccino

  • 25% : Cappuccino

  • 25% : Lilly White

  • 25% : Normal

3.Lilly white + Lilly white

  • 25% : Normal

  • 25% : Super Lilly White (lethal alleles)

  • 50% : Lilly white


4.Lilly white + Visual Axanthic

  • 50% : Lilly white 100% het Axanthic

  • 50% : 100% het Axanthic


5.Lilly white + Sable

  • 25% : Sable

  • 25% : Lilly white

  • 25% : Lilly white Sable

  • 25% : Normal


Lilly white is definitely very attractive morphs in crested gecko morphs. If you are interested in lilly whites, this is the best time to get one in your hand!
