Look at all the new growth. Since I am having difficulty locating a mate for her,I may have to rely on one of my little ones to step up to the plate in a few years. I'm wondering how big this one will be in 4 years.Definately over 30 # or more.
Still growing !!!

Nice.
Nice photos, is the split scutes from birth?
Hi Dennis:
I LOVE the almost white coloration of the new growth. I wonder why it has changed so much. Have you tried to lubricate the space between those top scutes that seem to be stuck together? Olive oil or Vitamin E oil or vaseline...something like that.
She's a beauty, alright.

The new growth on all leopards is basically black and white. UV rays as well as staining from environment will darken it. As far as the leaning vertabral scutes goes, I have been able to reverse this in a 6" leopard, and am trying to do the same with her. My idea is that it's caused by poor nutrition, and once it has manifested, it takes an excess of nutrition to reverse. We shall see. It looks to have been many years since it stopped growing.emysemys said:
I am not sure if that was a split scute,or not, I think it was caused by an injury when she was very young, those two slight ridges are still reflected in the newest growth.dalano73 said:
