Tofu is my beardie but I have three leopard geckos, Raptor, Panda and Pumpkin
I have never seen my beardie’s parents but he is a male and I’m not sure if he is any special type or not? If you can help that would be much appreciated!

He also looks to be a leatherback. Look at each nail,if even 1 nail has a black stripe on top and parallel to the nail he is not a hypo, if they are clear he is a hypo. You may see a very slight dusting of black, that does not disqualify him as a hypo. Hypo means a huge reduction of dark pigment not an absence of it(that would be Leucistic or Albano) (there are no trye Albano beardies)
To answer you question, they are ALL special :) Yours just happens to be a little more special. He is a cutie and should be stunning as an adult.

Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
Getting ready for another day. Feeling sleepy. 😴
I just walked into my room and instead of looking at me, Swordtail's eyes darted directly to the ice cream drumstick I'm holding
Finally replaced Swordtail's substrate
I miss you so much, Amaris 💔
