Richard,

Thanks for clarifying the age of the picture, I thought that picture was a juvie.

The color changes for the snow/leucistics from what we have seen are pretty typical as adults. As hatchlings and Juvies they are much whiter and then are darker more as adults. We have one that goes from a very snow white to a brown then gray color and its not just stress that is causing it as she has been with us for years now, but the majority of the time she is darker colors.

Here is her pictures in her lighter colors when younger and then below she is the dragon in the back in her darker colors. Drastic change huh?
