this little fella/girl hatched last out of a clutch of 16, the only thing apparently or obviously wrong is that its tail isnt fully developed, I had one more like this that died a few weeks before hatching that had an underdeveloped tail as well.

Hi,
What a beautiful animal - tail or no tail. In all the hatchlings I have seen, Ive have never seen a hatchling born with a stumped tail like that before...very nice pic...Thanx for sharing.

Awwww it's CUTE!
I wonder if that is more of a genetic defect, or an issue of some factor in incubation, or egg delevopment...
That might actually look kinda neat... being that the tail isn't actually bitten off, and there's no scar tissue.
Its a new morph like the albino savannas. It is worth $50k. LOL
Very good looking little guy.
