Who in the forum sells unique leopards? Any recommendations? I've been reading every post I can trying to find my first perfect friend.

I would love to see what that tortoise looks like now, a couple years later. He was so different as a hatchling.There are quite a few gimmicks out there with leopard tortoises, like the Ivory Leopard from Tortoise Town, that may look unique but never amounts to anything extraordinary as the tortoise grows. Even "high white" leopards could have a long growth stretch that is all blonde, but then start growing all black.
Take a look at this fella I hatched out a couple years ago. Still one of the coolest patterns I've seen when it initially hatched out, but you can see as it grew the pattern started to look just like any normal leopard. https://tortoiseforum.org/threads/young-leopard-tortoise.133221/
My take on leopard tortoises is that each and every one is unique. Even among siblings, no two will grow up to have the same pattern. They will all go through phases where they maybe don't look as pretty as others, but if you raise them properly and are patient, you will be rewarded with a gorgeous adult specimen that is completely unique.
He's exceptionally pretty, and looking very male, shapewise.This is my light leopard at 4-5 months old and him 6 years later.... I got him when he was 5 years old and granted he didn't get much light and during his growing spurts I think he would have been lighter-colored anyway because of his Original start color(very beige-y)but I could be wrong.
