htct????

[reptastic]

i was wondering if my little girl is a hypo tangerine carrot tail, i saw a listing for a male htct on iherp.com and he looks very similar to my girl! she is about 7 mo. and her yellow is starting to darken(more orangish) and the orange on her tail is spreading. any help is deeply appreciated!

No, she doesn't have enough orange in her tail to be considered a carrot tail. She's just a hypo tangerine

I don't know that I'd even call that leo Hypo. Just too much spotting for me. I think High Yellow is more appropriate.

i say hypo tang i bet she will hypo out nicely

She looks too young to be 7 months old. I have 7 month olds that are 40-50g... She looks like she's going to be a hypo tang. From the picture she looks 3 or 4 months old.

Do you know her weight? How long she is?

her age is a guesstimate i got her toward the end of august, i dont ave a weight on her but she is a bit over 6" im a lil worried about her size because she dont eat muh and rarely comes out her hide!

i would not consider her a hypo tang. she is a high yellow/tangerine. to be considered a hypo she would have to less than 8-10 spots on her body. From the pictures i can count at least 20

she looks like young w&y to me so you just wait until she grows and everything will be clear

There is no number of spots that truly dictates what is and what isn't a hypo. I consider this a hypo because of it's huge reduction of spotting compared to a normal leo, and that by looking at it, it's obviously from hypo Tang lines.

high yellow for the moment, but let it grow

It looks hypo to me, just not super hypo. I like how it's spots circle, very nice gecko.
