I reckon it's in their genes, but when I posted a thread nearly two years ago of my first marbled hatchling, I had no idea that this was not the last ?
None of my adults are really marbled, just a tiny little bit (none of the males, only some of the females), but now I've suddenly got five yearlings/2-yearlings/3-yearlings that is marbled. Now I've even started to "collect" the most extreme ones for the future...
JD, you've got some xtreme marbled RF's, have you any idea why some of our torts develop marbellation (strange word?) but some don't ? I mean even from the same clutch some can develop marble but most dont ?
Here are two pictures of the same Redfoot, the first was taken in January 2013 and the second in September 2014, and it's just beautiful how it has developed !
When I posted the first one nearly two years ago, some of you out there wanted me to keep you updated, so here you go...
