Well listen to this....Me and my girlfriend went to petco to buy a new thermometer because the one that came with my tank fell on paris's tail and broke his tip off =( a real little piece though....and as we are there they noticed us and the lady who always helps us told us that they just got a brand new shipment of leos! They were so small and my girlfriend noticed this little leo hopping around and sprinting like a madman/woman....so the petco lady said "take it its yours"...of course we said hell yea! Lol....Didnt really know what kind of leo he was but he sure looks cool....His head is white/transparent and fades into yellow/transparent on his body thin his tail is white and transparent....he loves to jump and climb already and he runs very fast and oh yea he bit me as soon as i went to pick up but i just ended up laughing because he has no teeth so it felt like nothing lol. Anyway guys i need to know what he is so i can know what to expect when he grows up! Also if u guys can, can you post a pic of a leo that resembles him or how he would look! Thank you! You guys are always a big help!

They are less common than tangs or normals and blizzards, I find. At least here in Canada. I would say they are the less common of the pet store type morphs...lol....if that makes sense...haha

So basically you're saying they're hard to come by in pet stores etc but a breeder would always have them? and what are the rare types of leos?

Wow, that is hard to say. There are tons and tons of morphs. I would say the less common ones that are sought after depend ont eh area too. I like RADARS, RAPTORS, gem snow(I have never found one yet), some types of blizzards and snows, enigmas, it really depends upon the person TBH.

Its a Murphys Patternless. Fairly common with breeders but a good find for a pet store. Wink

very pretty, my high yellow males came from petco, and my tremper albino female (RIP) had come from petco, they currently have alot of Trempers. If i had the money i would get me a new one since the one i adopted had been so sick when i got her and was to far gone. IDK why but the petco here almost never carries normals. Good luck with that lil beauty! i have been trying to find that morph my self lol.

i am NOT trying to argue, but i totally would not call a murphy patternless a leucistic, they are genetically not even close! actually i dont think there is even a leucistic leopard gecko out there yet...but speaking from the leucistic snakes, the genes and alleles are not even close. just saying, i think that is really misleading to call a patternless a lucy!

Murphy Patternless's aren't leucistic. But they are the closest thing to leucisitc in the gecko world.
But yes, saying they are definitely leucistic would be technically wrong.

Sorry, I didn't know that! A few places I've read have called them the same thing. I didn't know that, thank you for telling me.
I apologize for giving false information! Embarassed
Do either of you happen to have any links where I could learn more about the difference?

i also would caution you against feeding too many wax worms, feeding too many of them can cause health issues(do to the high fat content) and they may get spoiled and not want to eat anything else
