Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I would say Tremper. I can see how it would be confusing though. It's not brown or white like most Trempers, but looking at the tail, and body shape makes me really think it's Tremper. Most Rainwaters seem to have really light tail patterns.

I say RainWater
I just hapen to have one that looks very similar to yours and it looks nothibng like my Trempers. The shade of yellow is completely different-the bands are not breaking up at all and the body shape is a bit different too-more elongated.

It seems to me that unless you know the genetic background of the albino, it's really hard to tell what is what. You really can't go by color.

it also depends on where you got it from, if its from a petstore, it's most likely a Tremper, if it was purchased from a breeder i would suggest contacting them
Petstores dont normally sell Rainwater albinos

It looks like a Rainwater to me. You should be able to tell by looking at the eye color.

It looks more like a Tremper to me. It's hard to say for sure though. Where did you get the gecko? Also, like Olivia was saying, you can usually tell by they eyes. Does it have reddish eyes, or do they look more grey in color? Rainwaters tend to have a more greyish colored eye.
