The girl really is turning out to be quite nice. Her mother is very dark, but both light and dark colored animals can pop out of the same clutch, but it seems that the light females are more of the norm. Both sexes seem to be designed to blend in to the light cream colored granite rocks that make up the mountains that they are found in.
The eyes usually darken up as the animals get older, but even adults can show lighter greenish eyes.
This color variation of chuck can be found in several counties in socal, including S.D. I have never really looked into the full extent of their range. I'm glad that you decided to pick up some more chucks, Phil.
Take Care, everyone.
