So I went to the petco by new apartment and found these two for 14.99 each. they were also the last two there so im real curious to see what else they get. but anyway, im really noob when it comes to morphs and all that so if someone could ID these for me i'd really appreciate it. my guesses are tremper albino and super snow blizzard. thanks

Be VERY careful buying from Petco. I purchased from them before and it ended badly. They don't have thier animals Vet Checked so there is a higher chance to get a sick animal. Also its very hard to be sure as to what morph they are 100% since they are mass bred.
Bad things aside those are some beautiful Leos. I hope they do well. Keep us posted on their growth. Im curious to see the adults.

First on def looks to be a trenper second looks like a blizzard. It is possable that it could be a super blizzard does it have solid eyes? They do look a little skinny Just feed them lots of gut loaded insects and they will be fine.

PetSmart says their animals are vet checked, but theyre not either.

The vet certificate I see every Thursday from XXX XXX XXX says otherwise.

That said, I do question the health of some of the reptiles we receive. We've had beardies come in that had to be medicated due to strong loads of coccidia, I've had beardies come in that were exhibiting early signs of MBD (and once placed on calcium gluconate and UV lighting turned around). I strongly question the quality of our green treefrogs, white's treefrogs, green and brown anoles, long-tail lizards and chinese water dragons. What annoys me is PetSmart gets the blame on this, whereas the fault is with the supplier in my opinion, or whoever is sourcing the supplier.

Food for thought, the store I work at has gone through a recent reset/store remodel. The new plan-o-gram for herps lists us with the ability to get blazing blizzards....

yeah it has solid black eyes so its definitely a super snow blizzard.

and i will be feeding them well. check my other thread to see how the girl i rescued from the local pet store is doing.

i seem to have a habit of getting leo's that i think deserve better homes. lol.

I also found a tremper super snow albino and what I believe is a blazing blizzard at Petco. They were very thin and small. I think they kept too many babies of different sizes together and some were bullied. I couldn't resist for $22 a piece. I've had them housed together for 4 months and they both are doing fantastic. I also have a habit of purchasing geckos I feel I can do much better for!!

Looks like a mack tremper and a SS bliz or SS patty to me(they are identical so you will have to test breed)

will the ss bliz have dots when it gets older or will it stay patternless? i cant seem to find a good adult pic of a ss blizzard

and they both ate for me last night. they seem to be adjusting well. the bliz likes to climb on top of (im assuming his because don't males hatch faster?) his coconut hide and seems to be somewhat social unlike my other two who just ignore me or act skittish around me until i start feeding them.
