Welfare concern — research before buying
Quick answer: The Lilly White is a rare crested gecko morph with line-bred (polygenic, poorly understood) genetics. Bred for an almost entirely white or extremely pale, low-pattern appearance — visually striking and highly sought after, but genuinely different from most other crested gecko morphs in terms of associated health risk..
