My juvi gecko has white on his tail and back of head. When he sheds it has a smoky normal look but today all the white looks alot darker black I didn't know if he's about to shed or his colors are changing. I told a picture but u can't see the deference only in person it just kinda worried me any ideas?

ok thanks i figured that was the case....but this is my first leo and just wanted to be sure another thing is he eats alot most of the time he will eat 4 small crickets and 4 or 5 small mealworms....he wants more but i stop him at around 10 food items every night...but he still looks hungray and really likes to eat out of my hand

My little leo ate ravenously for the first month or so, sometimes up to 8 mealworms a night as well as a few crickets! Now she eats maybe 5 crickets a night, and 5 to 8 mealies every other day or so. Her tail got big and fat. And their markings change so much, it amazes me. I've only had my girl (I think it's a girl) not even 2 months yet and she looks like a completely different lizard. Cool that he eats out of your hand. Mine was so skittish and then one day she decided she was tame and started climbing up my arm whenever I put my hand in her tank.
