People have been asking me what kind of beardie my baby is... And I have no clue! Saved him from a pet store. Here are a few pictures of him. Does anyone have any ideas?

I can't see if from the pics, but if his nails are fully clear, then he is a trans, and if this eyes are fully black, then he is a hypo. I just cant see it from the pics.

Okay, thank You! The store sold him to be as a fancy and I was just '...sure, okay, if you say so.' ?

"Fancy" is the pet store way of upselling beardies that are more likely to be more colorful, or different morphs like leatherback.

My first two dragons were considered "normal". The first became a very vibrant citrus, and my second is a reduced scale hypo, both of which I would have considered to be "fancy" by their standards.
My new baby is a "fancy" and she looks to be as normal as can be right now :D But may become a very beautiful citrus as well

Awesome ? Suga's happy colors are this bright yellow and he has has some orange flares around his ears and jaw now. I think he's adorable, fancy or not. Can just get him a top hat and monocle if I was t him to be fancy!

Here's a better picture where he's a bit more vibrant and when he was starting to get those orange flares ?

What a little cutie :D He's beautiful, for sure
As he grows and sheds, he may end up looking very different in color and his patterns will change as well.

My previously mentioned dragons, my first was very dark mossy green as a baby and became super bright yellow/orange (like the color of a school bus) where my hypo I mentioned was a very pretty marbled orange/red/yellow and is now very muted colors or like a "lemon sherbet" color with hints of lavender and orange

I think the changes are amazing to witness, going from baby photos to how they look now.
Definitely take many photos as he grows and see the huge differences even one to two months from now :)

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
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. 😔
