Not het for anything that I know of. I got her at East Bay Vivarium. Just a normal (yellow-normal reduced spotting if one is going to be picky), and I'm keeping her forever Very hardy and unusually fast/fat growing and prolific breeder though, her offspring mature early, so I value her genes for that quality, and she throws really pretty hets sometimes

here's a het she produced in early 2003, Kaleida, I held her back...this one is het albino (HTA father)

I mated Kaleida to this gecko this year

I expect they will produce some really nice albino offspring this season- good colors and genetically very robust
