I believe that my gecko is a normal with het for high yellow or maybe a lavender. what do you guys think?

Is a normal

Is it the leo that dark or is it just a bad picture ?.

If it is that dark is could start a very nic ehyper melanistic line within 3-4 years.

That what i was thinking .

um... It looks normal, but why do you say it looks het to you? Het means that it is a carrier for a specific gene. You cant see if its a het unless that gene is a dominant/co-dominant gene, in which case the heterozygous form is clearly different from the homozygous recessive form.

Do you know what the leos parents were? because if so you can do a punnett square and see the probability of it being a het.

Ok i got it from petco so i don't know what the rents looked like.
Also how would i got about with the melystic thing you were talking about? like i don't understand. I'm very new to leopard gecko genetics.

You can not have het for High Yellow or het for Lavendar. They are both line-bred mutations.
