Classifying a Granite

reptilicus81 Jul 18, 2006 12:34 PM

A lot of granites are posted in the classifieds, and if I am correct I can assume that most will not be genetic granites. I bought a normal female last October for $35. I think she is going to be a great addition to my pastel project (as I stated a few times before this post...what can I say I'm a science geek). Anyways, I always thought this female had a granite pattern, but I was curious if you guys would call her a granite. I got her for $35 bucks, I really don't care either way, but I am trying to figure out how to classify possible genetic granites! I went to the hunters guide (love that site), and here is what I took away from it:

Here she is with my pastel:

Body shot:

Belly shot:

Now here is where you guys can make fun of me (if you haven't already):
Body shot:

Body shot:Blue=Blushing, Red=Spleckling, green= broken neck stripe

Belly shot: Purple=blushing, black=relatively clear belly with some side pattern.
