Profile: Jadeite

[Snakesitter]

This week Living Gems profiles Jadeite. Jadeite was born in July 2010. She was a rare acquisition from a small local breeder, made to diversify our genetics with promising local blood. We named Jadeite, as with all Living Gems females, after a semiprecious gemstone.

Here is Jadeite in October 2010, in her deli cup, just after she arrived at Living Gems:

Here is Jadeite as of January 2013, on the occasion of her second (and a half) birthday:

Currently weighing 1120 grams, we expect either Jadeite or her sister Nephrite (next week’s topic) to join our breeder ranks for the 2015 season.

Thank you for reading,

Nice colour but I am sure the pics don't do her justice.

With Brazilians, pictures rarely capture the whole story. :-) Thanks for looking!
