I'm pretty sure your leo is a normal :) but I'm no expert when it comes to morphs haha I just wanted to point out, though, (in case you don't already know) your leo has some stuck shed on his toes. You'll want to help him with those :)

Hi Scott,

You need to ask question's mate to get thing's right with Tico.

I had to males identical to your Tico, he is a normal and they're called
(Eublepharis Macularius)

Don't capitalize the species designation. It should also be written using slightly different text whenever possible, italics are most common. Eublepharis macularius. When indicating a subspecies, it is also written using lower case letters.

That aside though, leopard geckos are all Eublepharis macularius regardless of the morph. There's no distinct taxonomic designation for colors or patterns resulting from captive manipulation of mutations. A leopard gecko does not cease to be Eublepharis macularius just because it happens to be albino or patternless or more orange than is usual. Eublepharis macularius is not a morph, it's not a marketing term for normals.

Hybridization or some pretty significant restructuring of the taxonomy are the only things that would cause that to change.

Maybe It's normal or snow mack. I guess. I see some shed on your gecko's toes. You may help him out with warm bath.

E.m. fasciolatus and E.m. afghanicus are subspecies designations. More than likely you do not have these subspecies, the average leopard gecko is actually a mix of subspecies so I would just stick with Eublepharus macularius.

I guess the shed you guys saw is the start of one .
Gave tico a warm bath and try to get the stuff off his toes with no luck .
so i let soak for 5 mins and Tico was like playing .
got Tico out of the bath tub ( has his own now lol )
and walk him on a paper towel for a few mins and noticed that he had a full shed going ....

oh yea most important He Pooped! Woot i know but his first with me ( like a new dad )
and i was about end this post hes ripping some worms Up ! Go tico !
