doesn't have the SS bliz head shape. Nice blizzard though.

Head shape a method to ID super snow ?? are you sure about that ??.From what i've found super snow head shape varys just like any other leo.Certion lines may have a more uneek look by some breeder due to them having a trait about them.But to use to ID them as a whole ?????.

its not 100% but it is pretty much the best way to identify them. they have a much shorter snout. look at any SS hatchling, most of them will have the shorter snout

SS bliz do indeed have shorter noses than blizzards and MS blizzards. I have hatched plenty of all 3 morphs.

i've never heard of a pet store where you could trade in leopard geckos. was he moving up to the new '09 model or did he need a bigger gecko to accomodate his growing family i wonder.

We have traded three leopard geckos to our local reptile store. In return, we get store credit.

It's a blizzard. No way it's a SS. I can see the iris in the side shot. SS blizzards are $500 pure white animals, not a $35 dollar pet store score. It's a nice looking animal though, with the dark coloration I guess it could be a midnight blizzard.

I'm not saying fact that it's a super snow blizzard.Just questioning the possibility.There has been a couple cases in the past of people getting new morphs cheap it happened with a blazing blizzard and a RAPTOR as i recall when both was in there prime prices.Due to the sellers not knowing what they have.So it not imposible for such a thing to happen.How can you see the iris ? the pictures are so blury.Sorry but i'll have to disagree with you that super snow blizzards are pure white not the case at all.

Agreed that a few animals of high value have slipped through the crack many times lately.

Here's EXIBIT B at a young age, he is still the same color at 90+ grams
