    Ah, groovy. Thanks for the link!

    If you can visibly see the albino or blizzard trait, that means that they are Homozygous. (either two dominant alleles or two recessive alleles)

    If you want to breed albino leo geckos or blizzard leopard geckos, then your best chances would be breeding the leo to another leo with the same morph.
    Alright. Believe it or not, you've just cleared up what 3 pages of geneology discussion couldn't I appreciate you taking the time to sum it up for me.

    Do albino and blizzard Leo's tend to be highly sought-after, or are they quite common? $40 and $60 for the albinos and blizzard (respectively) seemed a little low in contrast to the normals.

    And by the way, the albinos and the blizzard I saw at the store, based upon my extremely limited knowledge of genotypes/phenotypes, were Homozygous. I'm looking forward to picking them up in a couple weeks, and hopefully I'll have myself a male/female pair
