Albino geckos

Aeromeggy Aug 12, 2004 02:36 PM

WHat is the difference between a tremper albino, rainwater/las vegas albino, and a bell albino as far as physical characteristics? My fiance bought me 2 baby albino geckos that are about a month old, but I want to try to figure out what kind of albinos they are. I will post pics later tonight...they're in their humid hide right now.

Trempers are sometimes lighter with whitish silver eyes and banded bodies

Bells look like normals but with brownish purple spots and pink eyes, some people mistake their darker trempers for these

Rainwaters have a more washed out look, silverish/yellowish eyes and pinkish bands

i will post pics for you to show the difference
