So I just picked this lil girl up yesterday... I think she's a blazing blizzard, what do you think? My initial thought was a Murphy's patternless, but she has no orange whatsoever on the tail. Also her tail and head are completely, untainted, glowing, white. Her back isn't yellow/cream like my other Murphy's, but instead is a light but bright neon yellow that only shows up lightly on her flanks- the back is a white "stripe". The eyes are pretty clearly an albino's; she exhibits a lot of sensitivity to light and they are a light brown/red with a dark red/black pupil.

Now for the second part, and the reason for putting this in Morphs and Generics...
What are Murphy's and blizzards? Are they a form of leucisism? All I could find was the names of the morphs, not the true genetics. If they aren't leucistic, what are they? Also, is it possible for a blizzard to have black eyes and not red, or vice versa? And lastly, if I were to cross this girl with a male Murphy's, what would I get? A banana blizzard? Thanks :)

I sort of don't like the pale ones, but that hint of yellow is really eye catching.. She looks really healthy!

I agree the the white white is the most sought after. I like the yellow but it usually fades with age.

See I myself don't care for the solid white ones either, but in person this one is radiant. That's why I caved for her, she literally glows neon yellow and white like nothing I've seen. I'm pretty confident the yellows gonna stay on her :)

Mine was the same unfortunately she turned all white. Using words like crave when it comes to geckos is a warning sign. You'd better make room cause you my friend are hooked.

She has a nice face and eye color, even if she does turn out all white I will still like her. How long have you had her?

Nice gecko! I like my all white ones. I have a two super snow blizzards and a diablo blanco. My husband says their skin looks like chicken skin, lol. But I love it!
