Crested Gecko morph
Crested Gecko (Correlophus ciliatus)
Homozygous Highway morph (HWY/HWY) displaying unique super form phenotype. NOTE: Super Highway has documented health complications. Breeders report issues in homozygous animals similar to other allelic complex supers. Use caution in pairing planning. Source: Omni Geckos (omnigeckos.com/highway/).
Third allele in the Sable/Cappuccino allelic complex. Incomplete dominant trait affecting coloration and dorsal pattern expression. Highway x Cappuccino and Highway x Sable produce distinct compound heterozygote phenotypes.
How to identify it: Highway het animals show pinning that bleeds or drips inward over the dorsum. Distinct pebbly scalation texture. Orange wash at hatch fades with age.
Super Highway follows a incomplete dominant inheritance pattern, carried on the Highway allele (locus HWY).

Highway Cappuccino
Compound heterozygote carrying Highway and Cappuccino at the same locus (SA/CAPP/HWY allelic complex). HEALTH NOTE: some Highway x Cappuccino compound hets have documented nostril reduction and associated breathing complications. Severity varies. Community naming is still forming -- "Highway Cappuccino" is a working descriptor. Source: Omni Geckos (omnigeckos.com/highway/).
Highway Sable
Compound heterozygote carrying Highway and Sable at the same locus (SA/CAPP/HWY allelic complex). Distinct phenotype from either Highway/+ or Sable/+ alone. Community naming is still forming -- "Highway Sable" is a working descriptor. No documented health issues. Source: Omni Geckos (omnigeckos.com/highway/).
