I just picked up my pastel Colombian Red tail... so I believe that's what she is. I'll be honesty, I'm completely confused as to how to determine the deference. I'm really not sure what she is after doing a little research. My guess would be that she's just a plain red tail due to the fact that all her saddles aren't perfect (she's a sweetie and I still wouldn't trade her for aanything... her colors are absolutely amazing). Someone please correct me if I'm wrong with this method of determining what she truly is. MY real question is, is there a significant difference in growth rate between bci and bcc? I'm being told that she is about 1 1/2 years old. SHe is maybe a foot and a half long and pretty slender (not under fed at all, just slender). FRom what I have read, she seems a but small. Any input would be great. I will work on getting some pics posted if I can ever find my camera.
