    Gordon Normal BP?

    Hey everyone. I just got this guy Gordon here and he looks different than other normals that I have seen. I am pretty sure he is normal but I am not certain and its annoying me. Can you guys let me know your thoughts? These pics make him far brighter than he is. He is much darker in person. Either way he is a cool guy, I just want to know for sure.

    "Normals" come in a huge variety of shadings and patterns. He looks like a very handsome "normal" to me.

    Re: Gordon Normal BP?

    Cool. Thanks for the quick reply. I just keep looking at him and wondering. I have had him less than a week. His original owner was moving and did not have room for him in his new home. Would you believe I got him for nothing?

    Although, that tail stripe could be genetic, but you would have to prove it out!

    either way that boy is sweet looking

    Re: Gordon Normal BP?

    I had some babies hatch and i think 4 out of the 7 eggs had the tail and neck stripe. Just like the mom. Then 3 of the babies looked just like dad reduced pattern and much lighter. Not sure Whats going on there, but im going to keep the nicest looking male to breed back to mom to see if the stripe gets longer or something like that.

    Re: Gordon Normal BP?

    He's a very nice looking male. We have 15 normal females. Every single one of them is unique...some are dark, some are light, some have some striping, some are reduced in their pattern, others are busy patterned, some have clean white bellies, some have busy bellies. Normals are just so unique and lovely.

    Re: Gordon Normal BP?

    Yea I love stripes.

    He's cool looking.


    rabernet: do you call it "reduced pattern" because he doesn't have the alien eye spots on his side?
