Any one know who bought the leucistic...

Dwarf caiman that was in the classifieds last year? I would love to see an updated pic of it. Does anyone know if they are being farmed or was that one just a freak occurrence?

it was a rather odd looking albino, I believe it is still available from Bushmaster and I think its also on Strictly's list but it is the same 1 animal and is owned by Bushmaster.

That is the only albino Dwarf, it was wild caught in Guyana and exported to the USA by Heather Martins to Bushmaster

I thought it had blue eyes? Do you have any idea what they are selling it for?

Yeah I think it was a leucistic (i think thats the wrong spelling tho) much more rare then albino. altho i could be wrong

Is it just me or does anyone else think that is one ugly looking caiman? Looks like a burn victim to be honest.

I think it is sweet looking. I would love to have it. I would not pay anywhere close to $20k but I would be willing to pay around 5K or so.

And to Kcaiman, Leucistic is spelled correctly.

I agree. That is one ugly looking critter.
