Ok, my first Leos! The little Snow is from LLL, picked (it?) up at the Reno Reptile convention in January. Just started yellowing, but his lavender is still gorgeous!
The larger female I picked up from a local shop (very knowledgeable reptile museum/shop). She was used for tours, and I spotted her and had to take her home. You cant see it in these pics, but she has a perfect heart right on her nose. Her name is Valentine :) Haven't named the younger one yet, as I still am unsure of its sex... thinking female, but waiting to be sure.
Any thoughts on what morph my larger female is? They just called it an albino, but wondering if there was a different name.

I will give them credit, it was a zoo there the day I bought her, and one of the guys walked by and just said oh theres the albino and kept going. I was going to ask for more detail, but paid for my items and left as the line was long and there were a lot of people there. Besides, here I get to ask and show off the new girl :)
Tremper Albino... ok, next question, good deal at $99? Especially with the awesome heart marking on the nose?

If you love and enjoy her, it was a good deal. ;)
Yep.... I feel EXACTLY the same way.... if you had a normal I wanted, and you were looking at my $10,000 morph I just hatched 4 of, and I truly felt I needed THAT gecko, I'd trade.... that's the kind of person I am. NOW, I'm not CRAZY, If I bought that morph, that's another story...

Love the heart on her...... you can kinda see it... I have a hi yellow showin' one too, only solid black.

cheers.

Are you housing these two geckos together?????

I was concerned due to the size difference, but she was such a impulse last minute buy I didn't have a secondary cage set up or anything. So I put her in and watched like a hawk. They LOVE each other. I have several hides, even got the large tunnel magnetic cave thingy so they had more room. They prefer to sleep on top of each other and hunt together and well, they are inseparable...

Saw your pic you sent! Hes adorable!! The only good pic of her heart I have been able to get is a really bad cell phone pic.
And you are so right, its all about what you like. I love her, she is so sweet, and I just LOVE her coloring, patterns everything. :)

Thanks!!

I was always told that when geckos lay on top of each other they are dominating each other, not cuddling.
Geckos dont love.

I too have heard that, but they are sound asleep... and there has been zero aggression. I am keeping a close eye on them, if there is any issue I will remove them, but they seem happy.
