It has a jungle pattern on it's body, but still has a banded tail so it is an abberant. A jungle would have a broken body pattern(like that one) and broken tail pattern. It is a very nice abberant though...

jungle's don't have to have broken body bands..they just have to have broken tail bands. Otherwise you're right...that is a nice looking abberant.

Leopard Gecko Morph Descriptions

2.3 leos
-0.1 tangerine het rainwater albino w/jungle background (Blinkers)
-0.2 jungles (Vahz & Skissor)
-1.0 tremper albino (Spitfire)
-1.0 tangerine rainwater albino (Bronx)

-ignorance is not to be punished when one is trying to gain knowledge...what scares me is the vast number of people who, when given the information to gain knowledge, choose to ignore it.

Can you post a picture of the vent area?

Some people say they can tell sex by the head shape. I’m just starting to notice and understand the subtle differences between the sexes at a young age. That leos looks a little too young to sexed 100%, even with a vent shot; maybe in a month or two. Just wondering what made you think that it’s a male Sybella.

Because, from the side view, it looks like hemipene bulges are already present slightly. I haven't looked at the picture again but I will...males tend to be wider in the neck and tail base. I don't recall that I noticed anything like that, just the hemipene bulges.
