That looks like an authentic gaigeae to me. Could easily have some Miramar gaigeae influence. Could be a Miramar x SA Zoo?. No telling without knowing the origin of La Ferme Tropicale's stock.

Miramars typically have very "micropholis"-looking temporals and snouts, and generally have wider triads (rings of three). That one from the photo "seems" to have a fairly tight triad spacing, and some other slight differences too, so that is why I say it "could" be a Miramar x SA Zoo gaigeae. It's all speculation and guess work at this point unless more is known regarding their gaigeae bloodline origin. But I am checking on a few things too.
