Here is a picture of my Levi and his clutchmates.
You can see some have single spots, some have the double spots in the scutes. All of them have speckled skin.
The breeder keeps both Babcocki and Pardalis leopards. I have read through some threads here and understand its not common for a pure line and very few breeders are known to have pure lines.
Levi was sold to me as a Babcocki, but because of his speckled skin and some of his clutchmates having double spots in the scutes, would it be safe to assume or label my leopard as a pardalis/babcocki cross or hybrid?
The breeder says the parents of this clutch were babcocki and I have photos of the parents. (Im not sure if I can post those pictures..)
So, what would you say??
