Female leo

snakegal123456 Mar 04, 2005 04:22 PM

I was just wondering if it's normal for leos to keep the striping instead of spots. The female I have is over 10 months old and her pattern hasn't changed since I got her when she was 3 months old. She's also got tons of purple. In the photo it looks kinda pink but it's really beautiful purple the non yellow parts.
Thanks

Anything's possible.

Kalypso still has stripes on her back from when she was a young leo, actually most adult normal morphs (this is what I read in the leopard gecko manual) usually loose the stripes all together, but some keep the stripes. Her's are noticible when you look at her but I can never get a good pic of her back.
