Last night I was at one of the big pet stores. I always look to see what leopard geckos are in there. The usually carry nothing except normals. Don't get me wrong I wouldn't mind a normal either. But last night there was a leo in there that has still got me stumped. Unfortunately I didn't get a picture.

Here's what it looked like:
Completely white tail
mostly yellow body
a partial pink stripe in the middle it's back
pink spotting on it's head leading to a pink collar on the back of it's neck
whittish eyelids.
I should also say it was a hatchling

I couldn't see it's eyes enough.

It looked really neat. I wanted to get it.

I know that you're all going to want to see pictures but I just didn't get any.

Anyone have some guesses about what it was??

thanks

thanks for the responses, Is that what a patternless looks like as a hatchling? I wasn't sure.

with the all white tail I would have guessed enigma. Despite what it is, I was pretty suprized to see anything except normals in the big pet store.

I guess so. If the white on yours used to be pink.. then I would say yes. once someone said patternless i went to the wiki. This looks pretty similar:

His pink spots in the middle of the yellow were VERY defined, almost outlined with white. and the yellow was pretty strong.

I wish I took a picture... Thanks very much for the help guys. I guess it doesn't really matter, as much as I would love to go rescue the guy tonight, I can't

Patternless' usually have pinkish spots down their back when hatchlings so I would say you got a Patternless.

to all who wondered and I didn't have a picture. I went back to the same store yesterday and the little guy was still there, so I took a picture.

Does everyone still think this is a patternless? I would agree, but I'm no expert.

Still looks patternless to me although I'm no expert. He actually looks to be in pretty good health for a big pet store :) he's cute

It is a patternless. I also think that it has some sort of albino in him as well. So that would make him a Patternless Albino. I haven't dealt with any patternless hatchlings so I am not 100% positive but am pretty sure.

I'd say Patternless Albino. Looks a darn sight better than mine did when I got her, too!
