My girlfriend bought this from a show, she was told it was a dreamsicle. I know nothing about leopard gecko's but am becoming rather interested them. I appreciate any and all responses. Thank-you.

I would say Dreamsicle because the eyes are red in the last 2 pictures. If they aren't red or snake eyed then I would say Mack Snow Enigma.

I wasn't sure because most of the pictures I have seen of dreamsicles seem to have a different color in the spots. She is at my GF's house so I cant take a closer look at the eyes but I want to say they are a deep red (looks black at a quick glance). I haven't seen here since she began shedding a few days ago. I will have to get some better pictures, I know these ones are blurry and you cant clearly see the eyes. The top picture is when she was first bought from the show.

My GF has recently talked about breeding this gecko in the future, thus the reason I was asking on the forums opinions on what this gecko looks like. Thank-you for the response.

Thank you for all the timely responses. I will get some better/clearer pictures here in the next few days and get them up. Again, Thank-you. This is her first gecko, and my first time dealing with a reptile so it should be a rather fun learning experience.

Looks like a beautiful dreamsickle IMO. If you don't mind me asking where or who did you buy her from for only $50. Even $70 is a great price for that morph. They usually go for 4x as much.

I took a good look at her today, her eyes appeared black until I took her out of the tank and put her on some paper towels. In the light, her eyes gleamed a bright red. Her eyes are completely solid. there is a faint yellow on her back (seeming to brighten more and more with age) and she now has a small orange line (maybe an 1/4" inch) on her neck and her back right above her tail along her spine line. She has no black on her and her blotches are a darker brown. The white on her tail is brighter then the white on her body and her nose and mouth are completely white with no spots.

Also, today is the first day since my gf brought her home that she has been handled. She has sitting in her log, so I pulled that out and sat her in a larger shoe box bottom that I laid paper towels in. I put her cave in there as well in case she was too freaked out. She started walking back and forth and seem to be looking for a way out. After about 15 minutes of putting my hand close to her and lightly touching her, I was finally able to pick her up without feeling like she was freaking out. She seemed very comfortable being held, so my gf held her for a short time too. Previously she has tried to bite my gf (probably close to a month ago), not once did she try to bite either of us today.
