So a little while ago i bought my daughter a crested gecko (more into snakes myself).
Ofcourse read up on the care etc and what to look for health wise, but never really looked into the morphs. But i’ve seen some pictures coming by and i kind of doubt our little crestie is a normal. Could anyone with more knowledge than
me perhaps shed some light on whether he is a normal or if he is some morph and if so, what kind.
No such thing as a normal crested gecko, they’re polygenic by nature, so they all have a morph. Most of the traits you find in the hobby today exist in the wild in some capacity, with a couple of exceptions
That being said, yours looks to be dark harlequin full pinstripe whiteout with dal spots
I’m aware of that, but some seem to not be classified under a specific morph and sold at a rather low price, to which i’d refer as a “normal” by lack of a better term
Ah ok, in that sense I would probably consider this one fairly normal as well, or “pet quality” I guess - It’s a pretty gecko, but very common, and it doesn’t really have anything that makes it an oddball, or stand out
