These little guys just hatched a few days ago they were produced from 100% het for leucistic adults of Dragons Den stock.

They are very white right out of the egg and have clear nails and as they age they are supposed to turn into almost patternless white adults.

This is one of the leucistics next to a 66% poss het for comparison.

Out of 17 hatchlings I had 4 leucistics pretty close to 25% odds that you would expect from a het to het breeding.

Take care

Check out Kevin Dunne's site Dragons Den Herpetoculture he has pics of the adults.

They currently sell for around $500 - 600 U.S.
