Its pretty normal some will have them some won't! It may fade when they go into there lighter phase and become more pronounced in their dark phase! It could just stay the same color through both phases. As far as it being some type of new genetic tweak on a mutation I don't think it is. Gorgeous baby though, you should be proud of it.

I just hadnt seen any like it. Not trying to hit any genetic lottery, just would have maybe liked to see an older version...know what I mean?
