I'm new here, but not new to the hobby. I bred normals/high yellows for fun when I was in high school, but kept a couple different morphs. During and directly after college, I gave up my collection to travel and study. Now that I'm stable and have a well-paying job, I've started building back up my love of leos (as well as my collection). Turns out, a lot has developed in the leopard gecko community since I took a leave of absence around 2002. Thus, I am asking your help in IDing a couple of my geckos.



I believe this female is a super hypo but the brownish spots on her head make me think she is one of the 3 albinos?





Is this male hypo, too? The weird black spots down his back made me think he was enigma, perhaps, but I've never noticed any weird behavior as described on various websites.





What about this female? She was sold as super hypo. I bought her because she so closely matches my male in terms of color and pattern (she even has a couple odd black spots on her tail), I thought it was intriguing.





Lastly, when I first got back into the hobby, I was at a show, and somebody had a big bin of not great looking "albino" babies for like $12...so I took one home due to feeling sorry for it. It's kind of a strange maroon color and weird banded pattern. Any idea on what type of albino or anything else she is?





Any help at all will be much appreciated! All of this is in attempt to not "muddy the waters" with weird mixes/random hets, etc. Thank you in advance!
