Living Gems Reptiles is pleased to finally profile the babies from its 2018 “F” litter.
Born on July 27, 2018 to Picasso (a unique dual-orange male of undetermined age)…
Sire
…and Peridot (an August 2013 dual-orange female; she was the product of a Picasso-Malachite litter)…
Dam
…this litter represents the first pairing of these two animals.
The babies in this litter were striking from Day 1. They display an unusually wide range of color, from dual orange to soft red to dark red. The litter has seven males and eight females, an almost perfect split.
All are now well-tested at a year and three quarters old, with numerous successful meals and sheds. As has been outlined in previous posts, all of these babies come from a disease-tested facility.
As with all LGR litters, we’ve done dozens of handling sessions for each baby, part of our commitment to start acclimating them to humans.
Over the following posts, please find a short profile of every baby in the litter. For each, a short description is provided, noting any behavioral or physical quirks, along with a selection of photos. For dorsal chains, “short” means two to three linked spots, and “long” mean four or more. Please note the term “holdback” means we are keeping the baby as a future breeder. Note we have not chosen all holdbacks yet for this litter.
So grab a cup of your favorite brew, sit back, relax, and enjoy!
