Well I have a question about the enigma circling? What is that? Does it mean that they circle the cage at night trying to climb the glass? Cause mine does that. Or does it mean tht they run in circles like a dog chasing his tale? Please help! I have a tremper patternless albino, do you guys think he has any enigma traits?

Only enigmas can have the enigma syndrome.
When they circle, its in a tight pattern - like a dog chasing its tail.

I googled 'enigma syndrome in leopard geckos'.
I won't start another enigma debate here. Nice colors but it's not worth it.

This video is a perfect example of moderately bad syndrome symptoms. Thank you for posting it.

Believe it or not, it can be even more severe than this (I've seen some spin like little tops and flip over on their backs), and worse than this does not bode well for survival. I personally would not keep one with syndrome as bad as the one in the video. And I would not sell one that severe.
