    Anything special? (possible DUW)

    I got this guy off craigslist a couple months ago, thinking (hoping) he was a she. I liked him b/c of his cool colors and head spot. After seeing the yellow belly morph guide and some people asking about yellow bellies, I think he might be a yellow belly. Also his head spot looks exactly like a baby fire that I saw.

    I bought him as a normal female, so I have few expectations, but just thought he looked really cool. If the consensus seems to be that he is something other than a normal, I have a normal girl I might pair with him to see if he proves out.

    Head Spot, shaky image, he wouldn't stay still:

    Yellow bellies don't necessarily have a yellow belly; it's a bit of a misnomer.

    Here's a better reference than my limited experience with ybs:

    No thats not what I meant by clean. I meant like all the scales are the same color. Whether its yellowish or more whitish.
