It's shedding, I don't have a good cam so the pic didn't come out that good.

Its a leather back or silkback...basically bread to have little or no scales on the body...

I am still up in the air whether I like these or not.

It looks... gross. And.. wrong.

Poor thing, those shouldn't even be bred. That's beyond just color morphs, that's not natural.

I don't care for them myself. To me they look like plucked chickens

I dont want to bash on someone's opinions if they do in fact like the silk backs but i personally dont like them at all...im not even too keen on the leatherbacks...the silkbacks in my opinion are a genetic mutation that should not be bred for...ive read info on them and they seem to need diff needs to meet than a normal beardie which is where i wud draw the line at breeding...when the care of an animal needs to be altered because of a genetic mutation that it was bred for then i think its wrong...but like i said thats only my opinion on things others are entitled to agree and disagree

I like the leatherbacks but these silkbacks look like burn victims...I can't see why someone would buy these, but they probably will....lol.

I hate to say it but the animal looks unnatural and sick.

A lizard should have scales... and a bearded dragon should have a beard.

I don't want to sound offensive but that is the first good look I have had at this morph and it doesn't look right to me at all.

To each thier own I guess.

In my opinion I think some of the leathers/smoothies look incredible and have a ton of potential. Im not one for the silkies though. Not my cup of tea, but just my opinion.
