detailed description
: The leopard gecko gets its common name from the adult coloration of wild specimen, which is generally a cream to yellow ground color with black spots. However, artificial selection in captivity has produced a number of color morphs, distinct from this wild-type, possessing many varied colors and patterns. Some of these include: High yellow, orange, striped, patternless no spots or stripes , lavender, blizzard which are solid white or gray , and amelanistic no black pigments in markings . Leopard geckos are one of only a few gecko species all of them old-world species that have eyelids. This helps the gecko keep its eyes clean and pArcticle-free in its dusty environment. Most geckos clean and moisten their eyes with their tongues. Another interesting difference in leopard geckos from most other gecko species is the absence of adhesive toe pads. Instead, they have small claws.
