way to know for sure is by asking the breeder and assuming they tell you the facts of the parents. He's considered a common, but thats not a negative fact, most dragons are common which only means they are not certain morph like snow, hypos, ect. manyof the names you see tagged onto them are names the breeders make up themselves and not morphs

if for no other reason that just state differently ;p

Morph: One of various distinct forms of an organism or species

Bearded Dragon Morphs

Commons (mostly browns and dark earth tones, there are also some greys and whitish greys)
Reds (althought this is questionable as they do appear in the wild in this color, so it would be a natural morph of common red)
Snows
Transleucents
Albinos (they do exist now)
Greens (probably one of the rarer color today)
Golds
Orange
Peach
Hypo
Citrus
and some are working on a black/white dragon I think we will start seeing next year, we can call it a domino

Then you have lines, that have been created by certain breeders working with a morph over a period of time that have distinct features or colors

Sandfire
German Giant
Zillas
And a variety of other names that have been added to a breeding line.
