Help Identify New Dragon

Hi everyone! I recently took in a Bearded Dragon because a friend of mine was unable to continue caring for her. I've owned a variety of reptiles throughout my life, and currently have a small collection. That said, I've never owned a Bearded Dragon, so I'm a bit uneducated when it comes to their morphs. I've done a significant amount of research, so I have no doubts about keeping her happy and healthy. Still, I would very much like to know a bit more about her. Here's what I do know:

She was purchased from PetSmart and was a "fancy" dragon.
She's about a year old give or take a month or two.
She currently weighs around 250 grams.
Her back feels very smooth, so I'm inclined to think she's a Leatherback. That said, I've never really been around a 'normal' Bearded Dragon, so perhaps I just think they're normally more rough than they actually are.

In addition to learning about her morph I'm hoping someone might be able to help me figure out what's going on with one of her toes. I'm including a picture of it here, so perhaps someone might be able to shed some light for me. It doesn't seem to bother her at all, and doesn't seem to affect her in any way. Is this something that can be caused due to a bad shed?

She looks like she has at least some leatherback genes. The Fancy label is a Petsmart Brand name rather than a specific morph. She looks pretty healthy in general. It looks like her toe got caught in something and broke at one point but it looks healed now and shouldn't cause her a problem. The concern when that happens is infection while it heals. If it's not giving her a problem moving around it wouldn't worry about it too much. Please let us know if you have any questions about her care and we'll be glad to help.

Definitely 100% leatherback, pretty smooth as well. :) As mentioned, the toe was bent at some point but will not be any problem. If you can trim those nails it may actually straighten out quite a bit.

Aw pretty! Our rescue has a toe like that on his front foot, his was probably a result of constant glass surfing, breaking it on the cage. But 6 months of a full size cage and no glass surfing it's pretty much straight again :)

Yours does look similar (healed already) so hopefully infection shouldn't be a problem, and as far as I'm aware it never hindered Peaches to have a funny toe :)

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
