Need Help

Hi There,

Sorry about the first picture i took it wrong. I visited that site and my dragon is actually a male and not a female like i had thought. but if someone could help me with finding out what morph he is that would be great.

"Morph" can only be determined if you know who the parents are and what they are genetically. He looks like a fancy normal, a beautiful one! When you say "morph", you generally refer to whether it's translucent, hypomelanistic, or varying degrees of "leatherback" - these all refer to scale pattern and pigmentation, not necessarily "color". Color is secondary, meaning you could easily have "citrus hypo-translucent leatherbacks" or "red hypo-translucent leatherbacks" -- same expressed polymorphism ("Morph") combination, different color phases. Just from looking at his patterns, he's probably got citrus tiger in his lineage. Soft yellow coloration, subtle purple sidebars, give that indication. He's not hypo, he's not trans, and he's not a leatherback - and to know if he's heterozygous for any of those mutations (meaning he carries the polymorphism, it just isn't expressed), you'd have to know more about his parents. He looks great though, healthy and happy! You've got a lovely dragon :-)

Thank you very much. As far as knowing who is parents are, I have no way to tell. He was purchased around this time last year from Petco. They do keep there reptiles healthy, but really have no one that works there that is really knowledgeable with the reptiles.

Yeah...sadly, that happens a lot at chain pet stores. Good thing you got him outta there, right? He looks awesome, I hope you're enjoying him!

I do enjoy it, he is such nice company. He gets up with me in the morning and eats whenever i eat. Very laid back and is finally starting to let me hold him and relax on my chest. I hope to get more in the future.
