    Male Leopard Gecko has a Rosy Colored Belly and Tail- Burns???

    Today after I fed my maybe 9-10 month old leopard gecko, Theo, I held him and had a look at his belly. I noticed that his belly and the base of his tail was red tinted. I havent noticed this before and I check him over regularly. He is still young so it could be just his morph? He is a murphys...
