[Irwin4530]

That is definitely the beginning of marbling How much they get varies by individual, but I am sure more will show up as your tort grows more.

I don't see it the marbling. I've never seen any marbling on one that isn't a cherry-head before. Where are you guys seeing it?

Pardon my ignorance but what's marbling?

 

[bobbymoore]

It's when between the scutes have a whiteish yellow colour

I was going to ask that same question, learn something new everyday on this forum.

 

[bobbymoore]

I don't think it effects them but where I am it's rare to find a marbled cherry head and they usually run upwards of 800$

it's strickly a cosmetic thing, but marbling on darker torts (like the Redfoot) just seem more attractive... just like the brighter colors they also sport.!
