Snake eyes or solid eyes doesn't make it a BB. IF it doesn't have albino eyes then it's not a BB.

Can you post some pics of the eyes?

The Rain Water BB will have dark eyes (they are a deep dark red), some times people confuse these with being plain Blizzards. Regular Blizzards can have solid or snake eyes, this does not make them BB. The Blazing part of the name means it's albino.

that's what I thought... these came from Reptile Industries (supposedly) which means they should be tremper? the eye looks much like my non-albino tang, so my guess is it's just a blizzard that was sold to me as blazing

well... I called the guy I got it from and he made a call directly to Reptile Industries and talked to the gentleman (I cant remember his name--someone tell me) in charge of the leo breeding at the Bell facility.

According to him it is absolutely 100% for sure a BB

lol, he doesn't remember the ONE. My distributor purchased a large lot of them and he knows which group they came from and that group is all BB

here is a picture from his website of BB's that came from the same breeding pool he always gets them from. Mine seems to have darker eyes, but I am told that could have been from incubation and/or cooling.

This one could also look lighter from the lighting, etc.

Does anyone know the name of the guy in charge of the gecko breeding at the bell facility? I can't remember the name, but I think it was an asian guy and I was told he'd be there at daytona

Here's a test. Take her in the sunlight. IF she closes her eyes like the sun is killing her, then she's a BB.

lol, like I said that's not a pic of HER but it's a pic of claimed BB's from the same place she came from and it's from reptile industries, so I am sure they are not out to screw anyone and sell a blizz as a BB

here's a pic of mine, but no eye shot yet.
