Meet My New Leopard Gecko

[mattyd1701]

Hi all got my new SunGlow Leopard Gecko last friday just thought i would share
I still don't have a name for him yet any suggestions?

Asleep on the first day of been in his new home looking a bit pale was getting ready to shed

Shedding his skin on Sunday morning was really cool to watch

Sunday morning after he had finished shedding hes a lovely colour

He is gorgeous!! I miss my leopards.. i loved watching them shed and they always ate their shed as well lol and used their mouths to feel theirskin off...

And when they peel the skin off their legs it comes off inside out and looks like a long glove LOL

Dont know what colour he is but definately not a sunglow! Sunglows are really bright tangerine orange!

Maybe a Tremper (Chocolate) Albino? Their colour depends on what temperature they were hatched at/kept at.

What temperature have you got him set at?

Also, does he have grey/slate eyes or pink eyes? (greyish eyes will mean its a tremper, pink will make it a bell albino)

yeah i know about the sunglows i asked in store about that because i knew that sunglows are bright orange according to the store they breed their own geckos in store rather than buy them in from outside breeders so they know where their live stock come from, according to the store owner he came from a SunGlow male and a normal morph female. So not a full sunglow morph?

his temp is 32°C and his eyes are grey

but i had him identified by a breeder last night on the Reptile Forums and hes a Tremper Albino Leopard Gecko, but either way i still love him hes great, am a bit disappointed that the store sold him off as a Sunglow and this store is suppose to be the best in the northeast for reptiles am starting to question that fact abit now but oh well
