"Dark Chocolate" Brazilian carbonaria.

[Redfoot NERD]

The camera was acting right today so here are a few pics of one of the ( void of hardly any red, etc. ) Brazilian yearlings. [ some "over-flash" on 2 of them ]

This is the extent of the color on this one..



He hatched in late April 2013.. right at 3.25" SCL..



An example - of the results of raising a hatchling by the "Turtletary Caresheet" .. ( gotta call it somethin' ) ..



And last but not least.. for those of you that like the BIG bites - dandelion.. American violets -
