I just got this little female and i cant find any other dragons with her color. some say she is a normal, but i have also found trans that looke like her. she was also cold in these pix

looks like a normal (aka, no fancy breeding, rescue, couldent proove blood lines or anything) i used to have, but i called her a high yellow normal, i love the yellow in her beard.

just a quick ?, how long is that cage? looks a little narrow, but if its nice and long it may be fine...

hanging out under heat lights burns up my brain cells!!

thanks for the info. the tank is as wide as a 10gal, but its about twice as long. i am working on building a much larger cage for her

She looks pretty normal to me..but without knowing her genetic background, there is no way to know at all what 'color' genetics she may have. Normal dragons can have a bit of yellow in them...in fact giving no wild caught imports come out of Australia due to their export wildlife bans, most US stock will be related to each other at some point. It is still possible to get completely normal dragons though, usually from pet stores but not always.

Just enjoy your dragon and don't worry about what 'phase' she may be. Unless you can get ahold of her original breeders and find out about her parents, only way to figure out what she is, is to breed her to simpler dragons and how the young turn out.

As for looking like the coloration of translucents, some are normal color as well...color isn't the trait bred with dragons.
