Can someone ID my gecko?

Someone recently gave us this little guy but I have no idea what he is. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Leopard gecko. Make sure to remove that stuck shed on his toes or he could lose them.

He's a blizzard. As above, make sure you bathe him and remove the stuck shed

Ha. Fail on my part. I could have sworn this was in the species section. I guess the "ID my gecko" part threw me off. X)

Thank you for your help. So he's a blizzard leopard gecko? And how do you bathe him? When I try to pick him up he just wants to run back down my arm to get back to his home.

Yes if he isn't very cooperative then you can make him a sauna by putting him in a cricket tub with some wet pieces of paper towel and place him on his heatmat for a bit. When the skin is soft gently work it off with a cotton bud and or tweezers
