Any idea what these rescues are?

I kind of inherited these guys from a bad husbandry situation. It's a male and female pair and the female was just laying eggs in the tank because there was no lay box. Her tail was skinny and they just weren't very bright. They are both doing so much better and I expect the female will be laying again sometime very soon, and likely in her new lay box. Any idea what morph these guys may be?

They both appear to be patternless (aka leucistic) albinos. There are three strains of albinism in leopard geckos: Tremper, Rainwater/Las Vegas, and Bell. These are not Bells, but it is difficult to separate Tremper and Rainwater/Las Vegas patternless albinos apart. These are probably Tremper patternless albinos, since Trempers are far more common.

Thanks Vanessa! Is there anyway to better distinguish between the two? I can take additional pics if that would help.

Nope, not really, but if I was a betting woman, I'd bet these are Trempers.

Very cool! I never really thought I liked Leopard Geckos but I've found these inquisitive friendly little creatures absolutely awesome additions to my household! Those cute little tongues just crack me up! Do you frequent any other forums related to husbandry etc.? I believe mine is all good but this isn't the most active forum.

Geckoforums.net is another nice option that is more specific to geckos, whereas Faunaclassifieds is more of a general reptile site. We've got good people here on Fauna though, but sometimes the number of responses you get depends on when you posted (e.g. weekend vs. week night, etc.). I used to be quite active on Geckoforums, but I got out of leopard geckos about six years ago, so I don't go over there very often anymore. It's a nice community, I enjoyed it while I was there.

I look at fauna very regularly in relation to my other reptiles, just didn't see a lot about leopard geckos other than what is for sale. I'll check that out! Thanks!
