When I looked up Eclipse after looking at these beauties I see that Eclipse does not refer to the body syle or markings.
Is there a term for these Eclipse Morps with this style body markings?

I want a trio of these to add to my collection!

Tremper calls them Abyssinian, but there is a lot of debate around that name.

They don't really have a specific name that I know of. The male I used came from a patternless stripe eclipse het tremper pair. I used him for breeding with an aptor het raptor and a tremper het raptor. The patternless stripe gene does some really cool things.:)

Thank you! Georgina is my favorite from this season. She reminds me so much of her dad.:D

I'll have some 66% het trempers this year, but that's the lowest percentage (I think) that I'll have. I would keep them all and test breed, but I just don't have the room for that many holdbacks. Maybe someone will get lucky and get a non het when they buy one.:)

"Rafe is the father of all three. I will be breeding him to 3-4 females this season."

I have 15 or so extra eclipse females that I'm sure would be happy to meet him =)

I really wanted to pick up a couple more females this year, but I ran out of extra money before I found any.:( I have quite a few males, so I have to spread out the females between them. I'm not sure how I feel about shipping Rafe off anywhere for breeding, but it's something I'll think about. He's my spoiled boy.:D

Kristi, Elena is my favorite, I hope you can sell me something like that for next year ;)

Thanks! I hope I have more like her then.:)

Oh no, I definitely would never consider that! I actually have extremely strict quarantine protocols- I think I've only added 4 leopard geckos to my colonies in the last decade or so?

I had to add this pic, too. I love how the head markings are usually outlined in orange.:) Most of the time they seem to fill in with orange. I'm not sure if Addley's will. Her markings are pretty dark. She only hatched in July, so it might be awhile before I know.
