I am curious, how can you tell if a baby/juvenile leo will be a tangerine? To me, they look the same as a normal,.. black spots, stripes, etc.... I wouldn't want to buy a tangerine juvie, and have it end up being normal!

you can make an educated guess, based on parentage and current coloration, you7 can even make a good guess-but there just are no guarantees what it will look like when it gets bigger. I have seen animals that were very orange as hatchlings get less orange, almost normal-looking as they matured, and others that did not look very orange at hatching get super orange and be screamers when they got bigger.
