Looks like a darker than usual hypo to me. Also looks like it's going to shed soon.

That is an aberrant, looks like a hypo, too soon to say for sure, and it is dark- prob either cold, or due to stress, esp. if you just got it.

Looks to be a dark hypo, either a result of cool temperature during incubation or while in the tank. This is a common thing that occures when temperature is too low in the tank. If this is the case the gecko may look that way forever.

P.S. if you want to impress people who know little about Leopard Geckos just say it's a Chocolate Leopard Gecko. I've actually seen some dark ones sold under this pretence.
