Does anyone know at what age does a retic turn calico? How does the progression of color change take place? Every shed or just at random? Has there ever been a tiger turned calico? Does anyone have pics of the progression from normal to calico?
Thanks

Intresting, it seems that a tiger i have might be turning! She is turning white where her scales had color. She breed for the first time this year and meets the critera for a calico change. I am taking pics of her each week so I can document the change if it is a real change. I will keep you all posted.
