What is the proper name of this color?

I've been bitten by the gecko bug. I have a reptile show next month, maybe find a new one. I really like the pure white ones with the all black eyes. Are those Blizzards? And what is a Blazing Blizzard?

You could be thinking of a Super Snow Blizzard, which is a solid white leopard gecko enhanced with the solid, jet-black eyes of the Super Snow gene. But you probably are thinking of what you stated, a Blizzard leopard gecko, which is characterized by dark blackish/blue eyes, along with a whitish/gray body. Blazing Blizzards are a combination of the Blizzard gene and any one of the three albino strains (Bell, Tremper, or Rainwater). Blazing Blizzards will typically have the eye coloration of whichever albino strain they were crossed with, and can exhibit a more yellowish coloration to them.

Here's a picture of what I was thinking of. I found it on the internet

I'm not confident enough to confirm that morph, but I'm positive it's at least a Blizzard, possibly more, possibly not. But it's not a Super Snow Blizzard, in that case, the eye would appear solid black. Hopefully someone with more experience will chime in.

Here's some pictures of some Blizzards, as well as some combos All the photos are from VMS Professional Herpetoculture and they take full ownership of them. They breed some Blizzard and Blazing Blizzard combos.

Regular Blizzard

Mack Snow Blizzard

Super Snow Blizzard (the all-white, solid black-eyed leopard gecko)

Blazing Blizzard (Blizzard x Albino, note the yellowish tinge and albino eyes)

Blazing Blizzard Mack Snow (Blizzard, Albino, Mack Snow, note albino eyes still present)

Blazing Blizzard Super Snow (Blizzard, Albino, Super Snow, all-white w/ red eyes because of the albino gene combing into contact with the black eyes of the SS gene)

I apologize if that was overwhelming or superfluous in any way, but I hope it helps

EDIT - I just remembered there's another morph of leopard gecko that is all-white with solid black eyes. A Patternless Super Snow. It's not the morph of the gecko you've shown in the picture, once again, if it was, the eyes would be solid black, but just giving you another possibility if you are looking for an all-white black eyed gecko.

Helps alot. You can never be sure if the pictures you see on the net are real.

The gecko in my avatar is a tremper blazing blizzard. Pink eyes broken up with really noticable red veins.
