He is from a very reputable breeder who also happens to be he same person who is in charge of the red deer reptile show. He is cbb not ch/cf. I don not think that this breeder keeps his babies on anything that would dye them nor would he have mite problems requiring iodine soaks. I have contacted him with the pics so we will see what he says. I have has the baby a week so after the next shed ill know for sure. It would be intersting if it is just his color and in that case something to surely dink with.
