My 2 New Babe's....

[sworntotheblack]

Well as a few may no i had an unfortunate incident with my male and female giant leo's and some tea tree oil as recommended by my mom and a vet in training, it resulted in the death of my female whom i was extremely attached to as i had nursed her back to full health from an eye problem a few months earlier and she was so used to me she would sit on my lap while i played DOTA on the pc and i could hand feed her in between death etc... long story short i missed them both terribly and didn't think i had the heart to get new ones. Well today i took my pitbull shopping at PE*** as we are going out of town for the weekend. I saw the leopard gecko's and just peered in, what i saw was a sign that said normal leopard geckos XX dollars, what i saw was at least to my knowledge not your average normal leopard gecko. After viewing the top two in the case i knew i had to bring em home even if doesn't patch the hole in my heart. Well i got em home and there happy as can be huge cage lots of room and hides food and water dish'shttp://img38.imageshack.us/i/photo0122jb.jpg/ on both ends of tank etc. I have a few pictures and was wondering if anyone could tell me what they think the morp's are. I know that they are not just standard regular leo's / normal giants.

*sorry for long post*

I would say Bell for #2 but clearer eye pics would confirm

:main_thumbsup: Thanks for the input i will post clearer pics of the eyes in the morning when there white lights come on, just went into night time mode for em and there out and about eating lots of calcium, which :main_angry: they had none of at the store i got em at. I am glad i was right i would have felt pretty dumb explaining morphs to people that think that they got a shipment of geckos that were coloured (yes i spell color with a u *colour* any colour you like) like that because according to those employees those leopard geckos just came mis shipped and were possibly some kind of similar gecko, then when i pointed at the African fat tail and said that they have similar characteristics i was taken to the back and show and African fat tail. It had orange and they thought it was orange because it might have possibly been sick or introduced to something when it was sent to them. I explained that pretty much snakes geckos/lizards and even turtles have various forms and colour pattern/variations that make them unique. It was sad as one of the people said something like man you know way to much about this stuff, and i just felt like saying man you don't know enough about this stuff to work in this type of field but i bit my tongue .. Fortunately the two newbies at the store payed attention and asked me all sorts of questions as they seemed interested, the manager seemed to think like i was some wanna-be know it all blowing smoke out my other end. Anyways thanks for the opinions and i hope these guys live a long healthy life as they are still very young. I'm sure i'll be asking for help sexing them soon though as they are young juveniles; i know that 2 males in a tank almost always ends in a squabble of sorts when they mature a little more...

They look decent size. You might be able to sex them now.

Well today i tried to take a look at them to see about sexing them, i don't have a lot of experience so I am not very sure of the sex, the one thing i can that i can see on one of the geckos is a few darker spots *pours* i think as they were referred to, forming just beside his leg and i imagine if they continued or if i was really seeing that, i would have myself a male. I'm not completely sure of what the other one is, smooth all the way back, however there very young and i have little experience with this. Half the websites said wait six months whereas on here im reading that 15-20 grams will be good enough to determine the sex. I am just hoping i don't have two males, don't want the fighting etc, when they get bigger, and typically i do house them together and at least so far and in the past have had NO issues with bullying or fighting, the only time i ever heard anything was when my last pair was doing the love dance as i heard my males tail rapping against the log in there cage. My camera phone usually works great but im gonna have to get to the real camera to get any decent pictures will post pictures in a little bit once i get the camera reset *stupid battery cover is where the sd card is stored and resets camera every time i take the card out* and get the photos taken. I will also take a better picture of the albino ?tremper? ?bell? so far i have one that seems to think tremper for sure but I'll get those clear eye shots..
