My first lizard < ( ^ ^ ) >

I got myself a gecko from the reptile expo, it’s a girl and she is really, really beautiful but I do not know how to classify her ( tangerine, carrot tail etc.) so I need a little bit of help. Her parents are pure tangerine but she has some pattern on the head and body, a few carrot color spots on the tail and the base color is yellow.

Also, she is scared of me, how do I make her friendly ?

TIA

She's beautiful!
Give her time and she will get used to you. Just try putting your hand in her cage for a while around feeding time. Eventually she won't think of you as a threat.
Enjoy!

Congrats! she is beautiful. Give her time to adjust and get used to you. You can try handfeeding occasionally to help gain her trust. But I wouldnt over do it.
