The picture on the right is the original lone female that was imported around 2003 from Indonesia. From that time, the animal has always been called the "Silver Sided / Butterscotch". Chris Mcquade at Gulf Coast had the female and worked to get her acclimated. He raised up the offspring and bred the males back to mom and proved the trait as an inheritable trait in the spring of...2009, maybe it was just last year...can't remember. The unique thing about this animal is that she is probably the only dwarf morph ever seen. She was imported from the same area as the dwarfs and she has many of the same personality of a dwarf. I have seen pics of her as a mature adult coiled under a cat litter pan and at the time, a large rat would have been a decent meal for her. He would have all the info about this group and where it went, or if he still has it.

Hope that helps.
