|
Hey everyone I thought I post up a picture of a new animal I will be acquiring on Thursday. She's a 2nd generation 75% Diamond Jungle Jaguar and she is around 6 months old.
Also attached is a photo taken from Precision Reptiles website of how they look as adults (although in my professional opinion, I think they have exaggerated the color using Photoshop)
The other adult pic is IMO a truer representation, taken from Sunrise Reptiles website.

My little female is coming via Sunrise Reptiles. 
The pic attached was taken mid December before she shed...I can't wait to see her colors in 12 months time if she carries on brightening up like she is!

I would say. I am nearly 100% positive some of their pics are altered using a graphics application such as Photoshop. The balance, color contrast and lighting suggest so.
And Mark is a top notch guy, I am meeting him on Thursday

Congrats Simon I can say with certainty they have shopped that picture they take that snake to the shows and it dont look that bright. Also you may want to recheck the percentages of that snake as there explanation on their site dont add up to 75% Diamond influence.

It is certainly NOT 75% diamond, more like 40% or so. The jag parent was the result of a 75% DJ x jag and that 37.5% (well, its not THAT accurate ) animal was mated to a 50% Diamond jungle, resulting in 42.5% diamond, give or take a few %  But tbh the % could be quite a bit more or less, there is no way to determine the true % of diamond blood, just the lineage.
I wouldn't blindly stare at % anyway, its a nice animal and could turn into a nice adult. Time will tell as they say. |

Thanks for the comments guys.
I am not to clued-up on the whole percentages of this animal and as tbh I didn't know what the percentages of the parents were 
All I hope for is a lovely looking animal in the future, which I am sure she will be if the yellow coming through already continues as it has been doing.
