Leopard Gecko Color Question
Hi, I recently rescued a female leo and when I got her she was kind of a pale yellow color. Well she shed yesterday(this is her 2nd shed since I've had her) and she has a lot of orange pigmentation on her now. It mainly shows on her sides. I've had trouble identifying her color and now I'm even more stumped. She has dark eyes, not black but dark grey. Her tail is sort of a pinkish color and the base of it has been steadily turning orange as well. When I got her they told me she was an albino but there is no way she's an albino, I have one and she looks nothing like her plus she doesn't have the albino eye coloration. I'll post a pic of her a few days after I got her and when I find my camera I'll post a recent pic. Can anyone tell me what's going on, she's being kept in a tank with the temp at about 86 degrees on the warm side and 79 on the cool side. Oh and she is fully grown so I know it's not from changing baby colors. Thanks.:?
Never mind the pics won't load, but can someone give me an idea? Thanks.
