What is this likely to become?

[liamandnorma]

Hi all,

Just a quick one. A guy has this gecko for sale quite close to me. I'm just wondering what morph it is likely to become from the photo? If it's possible to tell at all?

Many thanks,

Liam

It's an albino. What were the parents? What did the breeder say it was? There are three strains of albino and many recessive genes it could be het for.

Unfortunately I'm not too sure. I think I'll just go and have a look, and see if I can see the parents too. Thanks!

Looks like a Bell. Maybe Tremper.

It's an albino for sure. Could you possibly provide an eyeshot? That would help in identifying the strain (Tremper, Rainwater, Bell)

This, a good eyeshot would be able to tell.

I'll try and get an eye shot for you

It would be to live with another female, a normal/high yellow. They are about the same age and size. Would it be problematic that they are different morphs at all? Can they live together? Obviously I'd go through a quarantine procedure first keeping them separate before introducing the new one. Its just difficult to resist now that I have a much bigger viv!

I took a picture of a baby bubblegum.
They look very similar. View attachment 44329

[Thorgecko707]

I thought your bubblegum was older? How many do you have?

Yes I know what a bubble gum is. I may be new to leopard geckos, but I'm not an idiot. Thanks for being condenscending.

A. I would not say it is a bubblegum without further proof... you started learning about leo morphs what 2 weeks ago? not sure how you can ID that as a bubblegum when you are still learning to ID albinos

B. Katie was educated on bubblegums in this post... http://geckoforums.net/showthread.php?t=83145
