Hi, I am wondering what morph my gecko Milkey is. He has one snake eye, and is very yellow, and the rest of his body is grayish purple.

Can we have a top down of him in natural light? Also maybe a better photo of the snake eye from the side?
At the moment, your little guy looks to be a Murphy Patternless or a Blizzard morph. The better photo may give us a little hint which one but sometimes the adults can be hard to tell apart.
Hi, it took a long time to get the eye picture, as he was climbing all over me and not staying still! Here is the best I could get, it is much more clear of the separate halves in real life.
He is much more yellow after a shed, but he has not shed in a few weeks. The old pictures were from 3 days after his shed.
Also I think he is 9-10 months old
From the top down photo I definitely want to say he’s blizzard. He doesn’t look to have any of the markings on the tail or neck a patternless might have.
Honestly, I can’t see the snake eye from the photos. They look fairly normal to me.
I wouldn’t be able to tell you if he’s carrying any other genes. If there is snake eye, he might be het eclipse, but since you can’t find out what his parents were, we really don’t know. Sometimes snake eye just happens.
Thank you! I have one more question- ya I got him from PetSmart, be he is healthy, and in march he was about 3 mo the old (we think). Now, he is 9 inches long (including tail) and weighs 80 grams. He is eating a lot, but staying healthy size. I was wondering if he could be a giant?
Giant, IIRC is one of those genes we don’t really know everything on… it’s either incomplete dominant or line bred for size.
Without the history on his parents there’s no way to know, so I would not call him giant. Also, without knowing his actual age is another factor. 9 inches and 80 grams is normal for an adult male.
I have two adult females that are 9" and they’re not from giant lines.
I have also seen some people say it is regular dominant and others say it is recessive 
. Given how long it has been since the morph came out, I am guessing it will end up being polygenic
