Hi, everyone!

I'm absolutely terrible with gecko morphs/genetics, so can anyone tell me what this girl is?
(Is this even a good enough photo? She is edging on shedding soon, so she's not as bold & bright as she usually is. I'll post more photos post-shed, if needed. :))

Thanks!!

I'm tempted to say High Yellow from this picture, but maybe someone else can chime in.

Also, yes, a picture of her from above (showing the full back) would be great after she has shed. :)

Thanks! I'll definitely take a better picture of her full body after she sheds. I really want to know what morph she is.

To be continued... lol

Thanks, again!!

Hey, guys! So, here's more pics of my girl post-shed. Is this a clearer view of her color/pattern? :D

Hey, not sure if you saw my new post - do these pictures give a clearer image? Sorry to bother, just curious!

Thanks so much :main_thumbsup:

Hello Ruby,
That's a Bold Stripe with some carrot tail. The stripe isn't very clear but the markings are. Very nice gecko. :)

Yep, agree with Bold Stripe. Probably wouldn't include the Carrot Tail.

Goes to show what a huge difference the picture quality and timing can make! Also, is it just me, or is she plumping up a bit? She looks really good.

It's definitely not just you lol she's definitely plumping up! Now that I'm looking at it, I see a huge difference in weight between the pre-shed photo & the post-shed photo. Is this a bad thing? Sometimes I feel she's overweight, but she behaves the same as she always did, so maybe I'm over-thinking? There are times when she's a bit less active, but I assume that's normal. I've had her for almost 3 years now and never had any issues. I feed her every 2-3 days and almost always is ravenously hungry lol at times when she isn't, I take the food out of her enclosure after about an hour or two.

What do you think?

Thanks again for all the helpful info!

Looking at her, she doesn't seem overtly obese, but she certainly has a bit of meat on her. If she continues gaining, you may have to cut back the amount at her feedings. It's so difficult to resist their little "I'm STARVING" acts though... :) Of course, some people keep them even heavier than that, but I've never really thought that geckos should look like Jabba the Hutt.
