The father picture is very accurate in color - no spots at all on the body or head, super yellow, just a touch of orange on the tail
the mother picture is not too accurate... you can see the hints of orange on the body; she has a few scattered dark spots on the body, spotted head and tail.... she has developed slightly more orange since this pic
AND! the baby... looks normal to me, but this is the first leopard gecko hatchling i've ever had, and from what I understand and from what all of you told me, sometimes they look very normal and really turn into beauties.... what should i expect from these two adults?

The bottom one looks just like my jeffrey!

Im not too good on genetics, so im not sure, but it would be worth hanging onto the baby and seeing what he turns into. they can change so dramatically in just a few months

i thought the same thing when i saw your pic... no matter what i'm hanging onto her for at least a few months to see what happens- i know i'll probably end up keeping her unless one of my friends cons me into letting them take duties over, but for now i guess it's just a waiting game, thanks for the input

The dad is a (super hypo tangerine baldy) mum is a (super hypo tangerine) both have carrottails the baby 100% is not a normal it is a hypo type most likey is will turn out be a (super hypo tangerine) if you lucky a (super hypo tangerine baldy) but if the spots on the body don't fade with in about year or less then it will be a (hypo tangerine) but highly unlikely to just be a (hypo tangerine) with them parents but sorry not imposible.

either way i love this little bugger, first hatched, gonna keep her forever i'm sure of it... exciting to see how it develops, i'll keep posting pics, (hopefully better pics)
thanks

Yeah, that's rule - gotta keep your first hatchling. Penalty for failing to abide by The Rule is death...just kidding

I always like updates. Its so neat to watch them change.
