New Crested Gecko Owner; Help me figure out my Morph!

Hello! My name is Sienna and this is my first time finding this app and using it (so sorry if things look weird).

A week ago my husband’s coworker had surrendered two (1 Male, 1 Female- 2 years old) Crested Gecko’s into our care. They are some dream pets of mine so I have done my research on taking care of them. Their tank was in sad condition when received and since then I have cleaned it and am currently working on two much larger enclosures for each.

That being said, I have had struggles on identifying each of their Morphs. The images shown is the female; Zelda. The middle most is when she was first brought home and before tank cleaning, so she was fired down and rather stressed.

She has slight red dappling around her rump and up her sides.

Any feedback or advice would be appreciated!

Fired down she looks like she may be a Lavender Harlequin.

And she is obese, my reccomendation is cut out insects if you are feeding them to her or increase the amount of time between insect feedings to 1-2x a week and reduce the amount of insects.

Feeding Pangea Growth and Breeding mix 2-3x a week at least for me keeps my adult Geckos at a good weight and I don’t feed insects because the Pangea mix already incorporates them.

We’d also like to see the male :slight_smile:

Thank you for taking on animals who need help! That’s such a great kindness.

I can’t help with morphs but just had to say “bless you” for what you’re doing.
