I hatched him out and was told he was a mack pastel tremper, but I am starting to doubt he is. He came from SHTCT het Tremper X mack tremper.

Here he is today at 20 grams. This was a quick image from my balcony in natural light. He looks exactly like this image.

My sunbathing neighbors were looking at me oddly with a camera in hand, so this was the only image :main_rolleyes:

I would say no, but a lot of people are calling light babies from Mack crosses Mack Pastels and sometimes I go along with it... However, in my experience and from what Alex Hue goes buy they hatch bright and then fade. That one is a little too young to be faded already, but to be completely honest I have no idea... LOL! I only have hatched two that I consider Mack Pastel Albinos so my opinion isn't worth that much...

It forever looks as if it's going to shed, then when it sheds it looks nearly white. I highly doubt it's a non mack(pastel or snow) tremper, due to the milky appearance he has always had that gets milkier with every shed.

Here he is the day he hatched

I have seen a few mack snow tremper hatchlings from hybino type influence that are much brighter in color compared to him.

ok, here's a group shot of 3 mack snow trempers, a tremper and the gecko in question. It's not a great image though.
