I'd say that's normal, but it's definitely not leucistic...
Usually LG can be sexed at 2months age or older, depends on his growth too...

What substrate do you have now?

For that sized gecko, I'd suggest using paper towel or just newspaper.

About the morph, if it's het leucistic, it can be.
But if what he means was leucistic/murphy patternless, it should be look like at this thread More geckos, more Pics. (pic. 2nd and 3rd)
