I've had my little cutie for about three months now. The breeder I got her from said she was a sunglow, but I don't think that's right. I'm thinking she's albino, but I don't know which one! I won't blame him, though, the babies look very similar to me. Right now my best guess is tremper albino. What do you think?

These two are from last night. I know some morphs can be determined by eye color, but I can't get a good shot of them. I can confidently say that her eyes are a light silver/lavender at this point.

In your first pic she looks like she could be a sunglow but it's often hard to tell until the bands start to fade. If the gecko matures without spots then its a sunglow, if the spots stick around then its a tremper albino. If the gecko is the same one in all your pics I'd say you definitely have a tremper albino. There's a chance the spots could fade still and it could turn out to be a sunglow but it may be unlikely. I find my sunglows get their solid colors by about 25-30g. Cute little guy!!!

Woah, I didn't think she could be two morphs at once! I'm still really new to this, lol. Thanks for the input, guys. :main_thumbsup:

Now that I am re-reading this, the container mine came in are pretty much identical, the red sand and the blue tape with writing on it. So we may have purchased from the same breeder. I got mine in Prince William County. Mine is a BELL ALBINO SUNGLO, thats the full name he wrote down for me. I even see on the table some short and some taller containers, which is also what he had. Willing to bet same guy. Had a ponytail/long-hair.

Also willing to bed same morph and if they are the same then you would have an albino too. I read they don't have to have red eyes to be albino, but well I am a newb :)
