I picked up this little girl at a show last weekend. She was unlabeled and the price was right, so I went for it. Supposedly she has hypo in her. She could be an extreme super hypo, and nothing else. Genetics are a grab bag- could be almost anything, as eggs were all mixed together. There were a couple different types of albino combinations, hypos, patternless, and several of these. Her eyes definitely show the eclipse trait- right eye is about 1/4 black, left eye is half black, so who knows what else is mixed in and what she's het for.

Whatever she turns out to be, the primary reason for picking her up was so that my little brother can see a baby grow up. He is 7, and he just adopted two leos as his first reptile pets, so I'll do anything I can to encourage that, and keep him excited about them. Eventually I'll look for a compatible male (sunglow, mack snow, RAPTOR, who knows?), so he can incubate eggs, and see babies grow up.





Hard to see from the pics, but she's got a bit of a carrot tail going on, and a stripe that runs down either side of the tail.

Any guesses (and pics of adults that looked similar as babies?), or do I get to wait and see how she turns out?

Thanks!
