So, I hatched a weird enigma hatchling today, pretty sure its an enigma but im just checking to be sure, because it doesnt have the usual enigma blotches, the pattern is the same as a normal gecko but the coloring is of an enigma, its has bands and the tails also have full band which is weird for me. The parents in question would be, SHTCT x Blackhole (Homozygous enigma). So if could someone else could verify for me, that would be of great help, thanks.

I'm no expert, but it doesn't look like an enigma to me. It looks like a gecko missing one of its black bands. I've hatched those before. When I looked up black hole it did say snow eclipse enigma, but there doesn't seem to be any requirement that it be a homozygous enigma (since enigma is dominant, the parent could have one enigma gene and one non-enigma gene, so it could express enigma but then pass on the non-enigma gene to the offspring).
