What the...really confused now, lol

[Eyaliss]

Ok, so now I am totally confused by what's going on with Lethe. Like in my previous post I stated that Dad is a SHT and Mom is a RAPTOR (neither parent is het for anything or so I was told). She's about 4 weeks old now and just shed out 2 days ago so of course I get my crappy phone out to take pix and was shocked at how her spots that were black originally are now shaded green. I apologize for the picture, I really need to get my camera fixed and my light box done.

Any ideas??

Super hypo?

He looks like a Hypo Tangerine Enigma, judging by the almost all white tail and his feet look white in that picture.

What do the eyes look like?

 

[Eyaliss]

Eyes are normal eyes like Dad, no snake eyes like Mom cause Dad doesn't carry Eclipse. Her feet are actually a really pale grey with a few spots here and there. My first thought when she hatched was Jungle Tang but now I'm not so sure.

Here's what I believe happened:
The tail looks like it has a stripe, but I can see from the coloring that the body originally had patches of black, so not quite stripe and not quite jungle. Now the black on the body is starting to fade. When a gecko is tangerine colored and the black fades, it creates a greenish color that may or may not stay. It's really just fading black over orange that looks green. I have found with these nearly patternless stripes that as they get older, there is sometimes a return of spotting. So, the gecko in my avatar (who has since passed away from an abdominal hernia) eventually ended up much more spotted than she is in the juvie picture.
I see no sign that she is an enigma. Usually enigma's have finely speckled tails.
