Curious about morph.

PathfinderMom91 · Mar 7, 2020

Hello everyone!

Sorry if this topic gets annoying. I was curious what morph my Link is? I got him at a pet store and they have no way to tell what kind he is. He has clear nails, yellow orange eyes. His body seems to have weird color pattern. His head is orange and the rest of his body is like a sand color with lavender like stripes and orange splotches? I’ve tried determining on research but I don’t know if I’m right. I’ve included pictures of him in the sun.

Hi there,

He looks to be a hypo, although there were really no good pictures of his nails. Are his nails completely clear?

Coloring isn't really a morph though, so you can describe his color however you want

Hello!
Yes his nails are completely clear. Does the pattering of his colors matter? He doesn’t seem to be an overall color, it’s hard to describe. Sorry for my ignorance. ?

If his nails are clear than he is a hypo

Coloring and that stuff are more so a trait than a morph. A morph is a genetic deviation from normal. So you can understand how a normal dragon can come in a multitude of colors. It is still a normal as long as it doesn't have any genetic changes such as being a hypo, a translucent, a leatherback, etc.

I have no knowledge of those things but wanted to say he sure is a handsome Dragon! ?

Thank you! I’m definitely obsessed with him.

It looks to me like a significant portion of him is in early shed, which would account for the hazy body & leg coloring.

I honestly feel like he’s constantly shedding somewhere on his body. Don’t know if that’s normal.

Yup, perfectly normal--especially while they're growing. I've never seen my entire dragon when some part or other wasn't shedding. Most of the time (until this current cycle) he looks like a panda. :lol:

Nice looking critter .

He could be shedding or that may be his natural tone. Some beardies have a more vibrant colored head than the rest of the body .
