Its mom was very cream and the dad is unknown, so we will see on the color.

And cresties are known for throwing colors that aren't visible on either parent, so it really gets to be a 'mixed bag' sometimes! Neither of the parents of my little guy were Dalmations. Now he's turning into a Super Dalmation (over 100 spots at this point). So it's really fun.
I have to agree about the tailless thing. While it's sad that it doesn't have it's tail, they are pretty darn cute still! And without the extra nutrients needing to go into maintaining it, your gecko should do quite well. And be able to put on some size a wee bit faster than normal because of it.
Plus, all Crested geckos in the wild are tailless. When they were originally discovered, they didn't know they had tails until they hatched their own in captivity. So lacking a tail is more 'normal' than having one for these guys :gj:
