Absolutely gorgeous Chondro there Michael. Do you have any offspring from this particular animal, or any siblings that show a similar vertebral stripe?
They are actually 3 different animals in 3 different cages - all males that I am going to use for breeding this coming season. For the first time I will attempt a proper selective breeding and I will again hold onto many juveniles for a year to see the results. It's a pain in the cloaca but it's the only reliable way to assess the achievements. It will also give me the opportunity to offer neonates, yearlings and adults. Exciting times ahead.
