800 g mojave female. She seems to be a bit darker than my other mojave. More gray than brown but shes a great eater so I cant complain! Sorry for the pics I need to build a light tent.

Fire yb female around 350 g. She hates my guts and is a bit of a picky eater but I managed to switch her over to rats by using mouse bedding. Cant wait until she's up to size!

Thanks! Yea fire yb's are awesome. There's so much potential when she gets up to size!

Could anyone give input on the "mojave" female. The more I look at her the more i'm having doubts as to what she is. I can post better pics if needed.

She just doesn't look like a typical mojave to me. Maybe she's just graying out?

I love doing this :) Keep in mind I'm no expert, here goes... Yes better pics and some comparison pictures would help give more descriptive answers. The pattern is clearly Mojave so that leaves the color to discuss. I wouldn't worry about the grey as that is one of the colors unique to them. In fact the gene actually lacks the normal black and is replaced by a greyish color also as they age the browns even start to becoe different shades of grey. The first picture he actually has the yellow pattern (Mojaves should lack gold and replace with a yellowish color) but in the second one looks a tad more goldish which isn't a good sign so a better picture would help. The only thing about her that I would question is the coloration of the yellow areas but to me she looks 100 percent Mojave.

Thanks for the reply!

Ill get some better pics up asap. That second pic has some foggy blue tint to it so that may be causing the difference in color. The dorsal color was one of the big things throwing me off as well.
