another angle. The female in some of the pics I agree looks as normal as they come. As far as is she aberrant or not, I can say in 13 years of keeping Ive never seen one with the coloration variables this female has. Several respected names in the business that have seen her in person agree. I have seen aberrancies that were definately more defined. This girl looks very similar in color to a Durissus Terrificus. I didnt really post the pics to argue her differences, but we shall soon see if her traits are genetic. I have to mention she was collected a rock throw from where a completely patternless was killed last summer. 2nd killed with no pattern at said site in 10 years so something funky is going on around this one tract of land. And it is all mine to trek. evil laugh....
