Albino Questions

[x0.Jen&Marc]

Hey there, im not fully new to owning a gecko, althought I am not to sure about all the different morphs. About 2 weeks ago I purchased a new baby gecko. It was labelled as an Albino.. I always thought albinos are lighter in colour but my new little gecko seems to look exactly like my old Normal when he was a baby. I was just wondering what makes an Albino an Albino.. & is that what mine really is, or is just a normal. either or ill still love the little thing for what he/she is. Just would like to know before running around calling it something its not lol.

Albinos lack black pigmentation. Depending on the albino strain (Tremper, Bell, or Rainwater) they can get pretty dark and look brown or maroon-ish. Can you post a pic of it?
