Very nice :D Tigers are a really cool morph and one that I'd love to play around with someday. Did you get them from Casey Lazik? I know he has a really nice line of tigers.

Some bigger pics would be great :D. You might just be linking to the thumbnails. Just a heads up.

Pretty, pretty. I'd definitely like to see much bigger pictures though. -Shrugs.- They're so tiny.

Wow that top one is a killer. I'm not very familiar with Tigers. Could you post more pics....and a wee bit larger too. :)

Very nice never the less! :gj:

Nice Tiger, might be the pic but your Lesser looks like a Mojave :confused:

The only proven line I've heard of is Casey Laziks I believe that there are a couple other people out there selling tigers but whether or not they are proven genetic is questionable.

very nice!:D

I'm not so sure the Tiger is proven by anyone really. They are a naturally occurring pattern from a certain region in Africa. They used to be referred to as Cigar band balls and have been coming in for many years. If you breed a "tiger" to a "normal" you will get a mix. It's like breeding banded cal kings with striped cal kings......you get a mix of both. Does that make sense? lol.

Of course, line breeding tiger to tiger will increase odds of producing better tigers, just as line breeding any animal for color or pattern will.

BTW, nice looking animals.

According to Michael Jolliff, his line are dominant.

Mine from him has a eye stripe that ends wider than most at the back of the stripe like the ones pictured in the link, and he has the cool faded head like them. I'm breeding him this year, so I'll see what happens!
