Micro-scale would be very small,and smooth scales.Yours look like it to me but it's not a real close-up shot.

Is this better ?

Very difficult to say with babies, but I do see some larger tubercles on the back. I have seen some microscales, and they don't have the larger scales running down the back.

Better to tell after a few more sheds, imo

hi eric,
Is there a definition for microscale leathers ? Does one of the parents have to be a silk or something else ?

grtz,
Sven
