blazing blizzrd?

breezy1234 May 18, 2008 02:57 PM

I just picked up a leopard gecko an i was told it is a blazing blizzard. What exaclty sets them apart from regular blizzards? I have read that they have red eyes but then i see pictures of leopard geckos that people call "blazing blizzards" and they dont have red eyes. So if someone could please clarify what a blazing blizzard is for me.

Thanks
-Eric

The gecko on the left is a regular blizzard,
the gecko on the right is a blazing blizzard,

A blazing blizzard is a blizzard AND albino, so it completely lacks melanin.
