Nice pics Colonel :) Once again, great collection you've got going!

Andy -- Leucistic is the still commonly used (although now incorrect) term for Patternless. When the patternless morph first appeared, they called it leucistic -- however they soon realized that this wasn't the correct terminology to use, and changed the name to patternless. The closest to leucistic that you get in a leopard gecko is Blizzards -- but when Blizzards were first produced, the people who named the morph didn't want it to be confused with patternless by naming it leucistic, so instead they named them Blizzard Lizards... hope that helps a bit :)

I love the pic of Angel on the log staring at the camera! She seems to be thinking "What the hell is that thing?"

More pretty pictures! :) I think these backgrounds are much better for your babies, especially the log one. Maybe you can get pictures with the rest of them on the logs...

Quick question(s)... how do you know that Tang is a SHT since it hasn't started getting it's spots yet? Did you breed it? How can you tell if you have a SHT or even a Hypo for that matter and at how old? Sorry for the questions but i want to learn as much as possible before I go to the show in Oct (gotta know what I want to look for), not to mention the morphs fascinate me. :D

Oh I also noticed that Tang has a orangish stripe going from its nose towards it's eyes... Is that normal for all leos or is that something special?

Love the 2 white dots on Tang My Baby's head! Too cute! :D

To add to what Clownfishie said...
A truly leucistic animal has no pigment (typically a white animal with black eyes). Patternless leos do have skin pigmentation.

I am sure he is a SHT Teresa from the Tarzets bread him so she knows her stuff lol thats an understatement...Both of his parents are SHT hope that helped. The stripe is part of what makes him a tang :) I just love him to death, he was really dark in that photo too usually he is lighter.

But my Amazon has that orange by his nose too and he doesn't look like a Tang. You can kind of see it in the pictures here (http://www.geocities.com/schmidt_girl/Amazon.html), I am trying to get my brother's digi camera again since Amazon's colors have changed (his dark color is really fading). Is Amazon just an exception to the rule?

I got my bother's camera and took some shots last night. I have uploaded a few pictures of Amazon into my gallery and if you go the the link in my above post you will see how much he has changed in the past week or so. You can really see the orange on his nose now. Is he going to get spots on his head or will it basically stay like that? :confused:

I would call her a Tang, but I'm no expert.
