Hi!

I bought a female leopard gecko a while ago from a local pet store and unfortunately they didn't seem to know what kind of gecko she was...in fact they didn't seem to know much about her at all other than she's one year old.
Can anyone help me identify which morph she is? I'd love to know.
I've done some research and tried to identify her myself but I keep going between different morphs, she's similar to a few that I've seen online.
Can anyone help?
Thanks

Oh and also, can anyone explain why she sometimes lays with her legs stretched behind her? (shown in one of the attachments)
I've read about leos laying with their arms in front or just flat but not seen anything about legs stretched behind.

She looks albino. Unfortunately you won't be able to tell what strain. She also looks like she could be eclipse, but it's hard to tell. Could you get some better eye pictures?

Laying with her arms behind her isn't a problem. She is just resting. Mine do this.

I've just tried to take better photos of her eyes, unfortunately every time I get the focus right on the camera she turns her head! Haha, but I've had a look through my photos and theres a few from when I got her where you can see her eyes a bit better 11117636_1001386023207138_958472528_n.jpg 11301516_1001386026540471_949114443_n.jpg 11358845_1001386016540472_977739167_n.jpg 11638056_1001386013207139_2146221973_n.jpg 11651014_1001386019873805_971770907_n.jpg

Looks like her right eye is a snake eye to me, so she is probably an albino eclipse. Her color will probably brighten up more when she has more weight. She's a bit skinny.

Thanks for your help...
I thought she was a bit skinny myself, but I'm not sure she was cared for properly before I got her. She's struggled with eating recently but I've started weighing her regularly and I'm monitoring exactly what she eats and when so hopefully she will improve with time :D
