I would never intentionally hybridize an animal. That is the entire reason I am asking opinions on what it is. Im a research biology major and that would be very irresponsible of me to do.

On the other hand, it would be completely speculation as to what it is no matter what, even if you guys thought it was a pure subspecies of pyro. One could easily argue the fact that it shouldnt be bred in either case unless it can be proven to be a line bred pyro something similar to a baubel.

The genetics cant be traced back. The petstore took the animal in on trade, and it originally came from an unknown vendor at a reptile show. I have already tried my best to track that info down.

Also what makes you guys lean towards hybrid? He pretty much has the same scale count as my baubel, just a bit different on the color scheme. Thanks for the input
Will
