I hatched out a few babies this year that are eithor very dark or very light.

The pics don't do them justis.
This first leo is much darker than the picture shows the yellow is really brownish. Does this have to do with hatching out at 78 degrees or is she a malinestic leo? She seems to be getting darker with ever shed instead of lighter. lol

What color phases would you classify these geckos in, am I representing them right? I will be keeping them but I want to make sure I am calling them what they are. Thanks, Deb.

edited to say: just checked on the white ones and they shed recently, they have a very light yellow hue to them now, would they be pastels or will they turn out to be normal leos? They are about 2 months old.
