mojave or not?

[austinr]

i bought this little guy a few weeks ago from a local breeder and she sold him to me as a mojave. but after looking at alot of pictures and reading the identification thread on here im not 100% convinced. now im hoping i didnt just pay alot for a pretty normal

what do you guys think?

[austinr]

also i was wondering if maybe he'll change his colors over time and get the more yellowy color on his head and neck spots

[TooManyToys]

It sure looks like a normal to me.

[SatanicIntention]

I'm sorry, but your guy is a cute little normal. Mojaves are generally very contrasty, with greens, silvers and chocolate colors. They also have tons of flames, generally anyway, and blushing. Clear belly is a good indicator too, as are silvered eyes.

its a normal, it wont change color to come even close to a mojave. if I were you I'd ask for my money back

[austinr]

o piss! how should i go about getting my money back? i dont want to offend the lady

[Shadera]

That's a really nice looking normal. If you paid mojave money for it, you shouldn't feel a bit bad telling the lady you want the difference back.

There is no offense.

Go straight to her and explain that it isn't a Mojave, when you payed for one. Don't fall for the it's Het. Mojave thing either, because it is a co-dominate gene, and het. co-doms do not exist.
Take pictures of mojaves with if you have to, and explain all of the characteristics your ball does not have that are in a mojave.

-Lots of blushing.
-High contrast yellow back.
-Silver/Chocolate sides.
-CLEAR BELLY (big one! if there is no clear belly, it is definitely not a mojave)

Good mojave picture, not mine.

Definitely not... But nice normal!

[austinr]
