Does anyone have a photo timeline of one of their caramel or red coastals? They all look cute as heck when they are young, but I am curious how they change as they grow. It's never as convincing to look at a young one and an unrelated adult than to see shots of the same individual as a baby and adult.


Thanks in advance.

sorry i don't have any pictures of my own,but of what i've seen,on morelia dedicated forums,most.....

carmel hatchlings lose their beautifull colours as they turn adult

imo,its only a small amount of adults that hold that beautifull carmel appearance mate

I have not seen any true caramels outside of OZ, 90% of coastal hatchies look "caramel" as hatchies before the ontogenic change (be careful not to get stung). If you want a caramel coastal your best bet is to buy an adult or one that's at least a couple of years old... Good luck with your search for them. Id hazard to guess if you do find caramel coastals over there they will come with a pretty hefty price tag.
