She is super smooth! Good job. Nice marbling too.

Very pretty!

She has so much marbling! It's gorgeous!

I'm curious, did you have any idea she would marble? Did you want the traditional dark coloring or secretly hope for marbling?

 

[abclements]

Thanks everybody!

Heather, I had no idea if she would marble or not, but the chance of marbling was what drew me to the cherryheads. So yes I was really hoping she would marble like she has I was super excited when she started to marble but Jeff said it might just marble a little, so I just kept crossing my fingers and bam it worked!

 

[Levi the Leopard]

oooh she's a JD baby?? Franklin's got some marbling genes then, right? Well she looks great.

p.s.
Cross some of those magic fingers for me, too. I need my 2 smallest leopards to be female!

Actually she's not a JD baby. I got her from a place called reptmart.com. I just posted a while back about her starting to marble, so he brought me back down to earth and made sure I didn't get too excited before it really started to take off lol

I have my fingers crossed for you!
