What morph is my crested gecko???

[JTB]

Attached are some images of my crested gecko, Splat. As you can see, he's grown very quickly - from 1.5g at the very end of December 2016 to 32g at the end of July 2017! Anyway, I'm wondering what his EXACT morph is - I'm quite certain that he's a red harlequin, but I'm wondering about other things, e.g. is he crowned? I think that he's crowned, has chin blushing and has about 1% pinning (look at the base of his tail - he has two white scales that are larger than his others and are on his dorsal's outline). I'm wondering though whether he has any other structural or colour pattern traits that are worth noting. Thanks!

This image is from April. He's fired down here.
This one is from February. Sorry for jumping back in time!
Here he is in May, partially fired or possibly going into shed.
This is him pretty much fully fired up at the start of June.
I'd just put him in his bioactive viv at this point and he decided to do this! However, he's partly fired and his chin's in view, so you can see whether or not you think he has blushing. This is in June.
This image is from the same day as the last...As is this one.
And this one is from the second of August. He's really fired up in this image.
This one is from the same day as the last image, but from a different angle.

I have an idea of what their morphs are but I'd love to hear what you guys think. Here are my three geckos.

Leo :





Aries:
( Also she has a noticeable kink at the top of her tail from when I took her in from another owner )





Virgo:

First is a buckskin.
Second is a very nice full pinstripe harlequin.
Last i think I'd classify as a brindle.
Very beautiful kids.

just got this little guy on saturday and would love to know what you guys think the morph is!

 

[Yoshi'smom]

Your little kiddo is a flame.

Hey, guys, I just got this little crested gecko yesterday and I know nothing about how to identify the morphs but it was sold to me as a flame. Can someone confirm that? Thanks!

 

[Yoshi'smom]

Could possibly be a harlequin as I think I'm seeing a decent amount of leg pattern. Would need photos of it fired up to be able to tell 100%.

 

[taytyperry]

hi everyone! what do you think about this girl?

 

[Yoshi'smom]

This one is a bit tricky. I see tiger mostly here. Could possibly have a bit of harley pattern as well but I'd need a better shot of the side pattern. It's likely a mix of both.

 

[Fowlertoad]

Is this a flame or a harlequin?

And the same question about this one.

I have trouble distinguishing between the two. Where exactly do you draw the line between them?

 

[Yoshi'smom]

I would classify them both as Harley. Though the second one is a bit better of a Harley.
The way that you can tell is if there is pattern on the legs. Or at least that's how most people classify them. If there is pattern on the legs, it's a Harley. If there isn't and pattern just appears on the laterals alone, it's a Flame.

 

[Fowlertoad]

Thank you. That makes it much easier. Another grey area I'm a bit confused about is if dalmatian spotting on a harlequin or tiger makes it a dalmatian cross or a tri color.

 

[Yoshi'smom]

So Dalmatian spotting is a trait not a morph. A Harley, Tiger, or Tricolor can have Dalmatian spotting. A Harley can have pinstriping (a separate trait).
Morphs generally have to do with the pattern and color while traits have more to do with the extra details.

I was trying to figure this one out last night. At first I thought maybe a very light tiger. Then I thought maybe a chevron. Then I thought maybe a phantom stripe. The only thing I'm sure about at this point is it's orange. What do you guys think it is?

 

[Yoshi'smom]

I'd classify as a Brindle.
That 4th photo is utterly adorable by the way.

 

[Fowlertoad]

Yeah I know lol. It doesn't show much but I had to include it. He's really good. When I open up the tank he comes down to that spot and waits patiently for a cricket. Thank you for your help and quick replies.

 

[Yoshi'smom]

Geckos are some unique characters. They bring me so much joy. Maybe that's why I have so many......
And you are very welcome. Always glad to help. Gonna try to lurk on here more often.

What morph is my new crestie?

Just trying to figure out what morph my new crested gecko is! I got her from a breeder from the reptile expo i was at for $80. I never thought to ask what morph she was at the time, i was more concerned that she was healthy. Now I’m curious! If anybody has an idea let me know

 

[Yoshi'smom]

She's a Flame.
