To me, that's normally called a tri color in chondros.


The green tree is still changing. I mean finished product.

To me, that's normally called a tri color in chondros.

This by "chondro" standards, is what is referred to as tri-color, and sometimes quad-color depending on the amount of white.






typical tri-color look.....with a bit more yellow.

and one with a bit more green.


Melanistic "phase". This animal does not look like this any longer. Melanistic chondros are referred to those with large amounts of black pigment.



I would consider WARocker's animal to be "calico"ish at this point. Who knows what will happen with it as it keeps progressing.

Here is an example of a melanistic Hognose.

I have a question I see melanistic phase thrown around, meaning the animal appears melanistic to some degree durring the Ontogenic color change. How many of these animals would still be considered melanistic at the end completion of that color change, and would you consider it a real melanistic animal? I am just curious sorry for getting off topic.
