Hi, Bit of a novice question but what is the difference in yellow, red and maroon GTP babies please? I know that the maroon can produce more diverse colours in adulthood but I was wondered what the indication, if any was for adult colour.

I think they are all different localitites from what I have read... Mind you i don't know my Biaks from my Sarongs Smile

I think I did read that the Maroon or red babies are the most agressive type though, which is a shame as they are a favourite. Shame they go green really. I really like the Blue- green adults, maybe someone can give us a run down on the localities with differnent colours and temperaments?

all localities can produce either color sibling in the same clutch.
as for adult colouration just depend's on thier locatilty, reason unknown?

Thanks for the replies folks. That pic is one cool snap. I know it is dependent on locality and parents but I often see one clutch for sale, yellows one price and maroon a higher price from the same clutch. I always figured that say with the melanistic that the yellows would always produce a green adult where as a dark maroon had the possibility of producing something else as well as green, any one know please?
