Enigma syndrome?

I recently purchased a Leo from our local pet store. I'm not sure what she is morph wise or what an enigma gecko looks like but I've noticed that at times she spooks kinda easily and other times she's not effected at all by things that go on around her and she just observes. Also some times she will stare out of her tank for minutes at a time and not move. How do I find out if she has this syndrome?

Well the gecko doesn't look to be an enigma. It's normal for young geckos to be easily startled. If she had enigma syndrome, you would see things like frequent circling and star gazing as well as not eating and other problems.

So I would say no. =) looks like a healthy young albino.

I agree that it looks like an albino and not enigma.

Some geckos are more skittish than others. I have a male who freaks out when a roach runs over him. I hear all kinds of noise coming from his tub from his spazzing. Being albino can also make them a little more skittish, especially in bright light.
