How much were they charging for these translucent dragons? Sounds neat. I wonder how healthy they are compared to other dragons. I would think it would take a hell of a lot of messing with the genes, and lots of breeding to create something like that. I know they were working on different types of eyes and things, just sounds too weird. Like a freak show dragon or something lol.. Would love to see a pic of them.

They were selling them for 500ea in daytona. I know that kevin from kwe bought a pair they look so wierd. The belly looks like one of a premature baby. You can see all the dark internals. It looks like it is missing all white pigment. It is very translucent.

Hey thanks for the pics. That is even freakier then I expected. Man you can see the guts inside, gross. Don't think that's anything I'm intersted in =P I like to keep their insides well, inside. Wonder how that would look if they had some colors worked into them too. Weird, I just can't imagine what that is from, or how they got that in a dragon. Very odd. Would like to know how they are health wise before I would spend that kinda money on them. Next year people will be calling their babies translucent too and well they'll end up for 50 bucks as well.
