    My Leopard Gecko

    Hello, new here! Just want to share pictures of my lovely leopard gecko Fii. I'm not sure of her morph, though. Any possible insights (short of trying to get a DNA test) would be appreciated!

    The last owner said she was about two years old. I'm working on handling her since he rarely handled her. She lets me pet her but doesnt like climbing onto my hand. Frankly, this girl ignores my hand.

    Luckily she has all of her toes and claws, sheds nicely, and started eating within the first week. Plus NO impaction, which is wonderful.

    I have noticed, though, that her head has a sort of... Raptor like shape due to her jaw. Not saying she has an over/underbite, just that I see other leos have a... Fatter looking jaw. Haven't bought a gram scale yet, so not sure if she needs to gain weight.

    Her diet consists of hornworms, Phoenix worms, mealworms, and crickets. I will be purchasing dubia roaches as a staple and sometimes silkworms if I get a chance to. I don't feed her mealworms very often due to the fact that she started to have trouble digesting them (I was waiting on a thermostat, so heat could only be at 75 via house temps) and was starting to become impacted. (Fixed, she's doing great.) I don't feed her crickets very often as they are dirty bugs. Working at a pet store, I know how crickets are.

    I know at least that much. She could be a partial carrot tail, but some breeders say 15%, others say 30%. Also it's not solid.
