Is this an ivory leopard?

[wellington]

I raised a lighter colored leopard. Her name was #14 and @wellington has her now. I called her "blonde", but I don't think its a special color morph that I should be charging more for. She was just lighter than "normal".

However this ends up, I wish you many happy years with your very attractive leopard tortoise.

And her name now is Ethel and she has a friend named Lucy from Neal

This whole scenario make my stomach turn. @Tom has the best POV. If you like the tortoise as it is then that's that. But the continual Bullfeces labeling of any trait that may or may not be a genetic trait is silly in my own POV. It is as likely an environmental result as a genetic one, or a combination of those factors.

The reverse is true as well. Two horribly pyramided tortoises can produce offspring that grow to look like a wild type, based on care.

Jim Barzyk (Mighty J) was the first seller I saw mocking all this in a very humorous way. Maybe he was the first to do it with tortoises. Bill Zovickian gave a good response in this thread too.

Purple People Eater
Sheb Wooley
Well, I saw the thing comin' out of the sky
It had the one long horn, one big eye
I commenced to shakin' and I said "ooh-eee"
It looks like a purple eater to me
It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater
(One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater)
A one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater
Sure looks strange to me (one eye?)
Well he came down to earth and he lit in a tree
I said Mr. Purple People Eater, don't eat me
I heard him say in a voice so gruff
"I wouldn't eat you 'cause you're so tough"
It was a one-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater
One-eyed, one-horned flyin' purple people eater
One-eyed, one-horned, flyin' purple people eater
Sure looks strange to me (one horn?)
I said Mr. Purple People Eater, what's your line?
He said "eatin' purple people and it sure is fine
But that's not the reason that I came to land
I want to get a job in a rock and roll band"
Well bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater
Pigeon-toed, under-growed, flyin' purple people eater
(We wear short shorts) friendly little people eater
What a sight to see (oh!)
And then he swung from the tree and he lit on the ground
And he started to rock, really rockin' around
It was a crazy ditty with a swingin' tune
(Sing a boop-boop, a-boopa lopa lum bam boom)
Well, bless my soul, rock and roll, flyin' purple people eater
Pigeon-toed, under growed, flyin' purple people eater
"I like short shorts!" flyin' purple people eater
What a sight to see (purple people?)
Well, he went on his way, and then what do ya know?
I saw him last night on a TV show
He was blowing it out, really knockin' em dead
Playin' rock and roll music through the horn in his head
"Tequila!"
