Marbling

[Zoeclare]

will the white eventually turn dark/black or will it always be that contrasting?

No it should go darker over time that's just new growth

Thank you, he is quite pretty! It's strange as he only had the tiniest bit of marbling as a hatchling, I only knew what it was because the breeder mentioned it!

Don't tell Murphy, but that's probably the coolest looking redfoot I've ever seen.

Murphy is gorgeous! He's so photogenic, Nitro never cooperates

That little one has exceptional marbling even for a Brazilian. As has been said, the lighter areas of the shell usually darken with age—and especially exposure to sunlight. But some individuals retain the light/dark marbling into adulthood. Nitro may be one of the exceptions. Time will tell.
