First let me say thanks for responding. On pg 71 of the first edition of the leopard gecko manual there is a photo of the underside of a geckos head (Bill love pic)with some slight spotting the caption reads "new morphs of leopard gecko will inevitably emerge. This is a representative of a big head race characterized by dark chin spotting." Well the photo is not in the new one and it concerns me as ive been working on this trait for 3 yrs now, and boy is it comming along, this years babies will be amazing. My male by far has the most under chin spotting ive seen, hes super dark, with a monster head and the spots get passed on to every baby.............what do u think

no offense, but why would someone invest that much time and effort into a morph that you have to flip over to see?

I have 1 leo that hates even being touched, let alone flipped over.

no offense taken, maybe you didnt notice the trait was refered to as BIG HEADED you can id this trait via the under chin spotting, i can show more pics you can see shadows spots with out picking him up id never flip over one of my geckos thanks for the good question, i get your point really i do but its like asking why would you buy a spotted gecko with no spots........................ i guess its all about what you like, and well shadow is my bud.................cant wait to see a baldy with all those spots under her chin
