    morph or just light normal?
    I am planning on getting this seemingly female leopard gecko from a family friend. Unknown history, age and weight but seems to be a tad on the slender side her current enclosure has no heat and I feel bad for the poor girl...Anyways I took a quick crummy pic of her... she seems a tad brighter than a normal with lighter spots/ stripes. Could she be a hypo with some striping or will the stripes probably dissipate into little average spots when older?

    Yes, she is a morph. Leopard geckos have black spots on a high yellow base. Let me do some digging to double-check my thoughts and I'll repost here in a moment.

    Edit: What color/pattern are her eyes, by the way?

    Edit Edit:

    She's definitely reminding me of an Albino, since their patterns can vary. Tremper Albino or Rainwater Albino. But knowing the color of her eyes will definitely help.

    If I'm correct her eyes seemed to look like any normal leopard geckos eyes next time I'm over there I'll defiantly take a closer look thank you for your input :)

    Re: morph or just light normal?
    Looks like a hybino (hypo albino) to me. I'm fairly new to leopard geckos so hopefully someone with more knowledge will chime in. There's 3 types of albinos that i know of: bell, rainwater or las Vegas, and tremper. I've never seen a rainwater in person. Bells tend to be more pinkish and trempers tend to be more white and yellow. So I'm leaning toward a bell for that one. But please someone with more experience correct me.

    Out almost looks like a bell albino. But +1 on the eyes helping.
