I don't know alot about crested gecko genetics, but I do know they tend to be pretty varied in appearance among offspring of the same pair. I would check the breeder's site you bought the geckos from, see if he has paired up similar geckos and check out the pictures. Or just send him an email and ask.

Your cage is too cool...fine for night time but daytime temps should reach between 70-80F...or aim for about 75F, at least in one section of the cage. (its good to have a temperature gradient). A low watt lightbulb on during the day is fine. Set it up on a timer so it goes out after 12-14 hours.

I never had to use any heating with my geckos, as my typical room temperature fell between 73-78F year round. Average is about 75F.
