Just because you breed doesn't mean you can give irresponsible answers to questions here. Ask any respectable breeder if you can ID a gecko (with hets) visually and they will tell you no. This site is for helping to educate people the correct way.

I just call it like I see it....guess I'm not considered a "respectable" breeder then.....thanks again for your input...obviously you have a sense of "entitlement" when it comes to your expert opinion...

This animal is a pet, and is either MP or Blizzard. Given that is it still relatively small, and I see no underlying residual pattern, I would say blizzard. Blizzard also often throws 'false eclipse' eyes, so that explains the half pigmented eyes.
In regard to identifying morphs-
It is in no way related to entitlement, or whatever you want to try and diverge to, to avoid the point at hand.
Recessive traits are such because they simply do NOT have any visual indication when they are in the heterozygous state. Anyone with a shred of an idea of genetics and how they play in leopard geckos can tell you that. There is no way to tell what hets an animal carries without test breeding or knowing the parental information. Suggesting anything different to newcomers is irresponsible and part of the reason the hobby is so muddled with pet animals.
