bruises or stomach?

violentxuprising Jun 29, 2004 12:01 AM

hi, on my baby albino, i sometime see dark purple underneath the skin behind its head and on its torso. the color is sometime pretty strong, and at other times it isnt even there, i was wondering if those are bruises or is that just it's guts showing, or what is going on? thanks.

try taking some pics, usually people can help you identify it easier then

no, was housed together at petco, but not at here home. and i didnt see the colorations until after i brought it home. i will try to u/l some pics tomorrow, it is nighttime right now, and i dont wanna freak it out with flashing lights. i also dont even know it the colors would show up on pictures, it is so underneath and transparent at times. thanks.
