I'm assuming these are Bibron's Gecko, just need confirmation due to color variation. Thanks!

How can you distinguish between Bibron's and Turner's? -O-

They come both in all colorations 0'

What says your Fieldguide about the range?

The Field Guide shows both of them (Bibron's and Turner's) ranging into the Kgalagadi area, hence my confusion. As you were so kind to supply me w/ articles outlining the differences (Bibron's having lrg head scales, sml mental, and sml eyelid scales and Turner's the opposite), I tried to apply those criterion (pl??), but can't see the mental, and the other 2 are iffy to me in these photos.
