Hi David...it's a sweet little guy, that's for sure. Depending on how much red the parents have in their line, your baby may get more colorful or not gain much color at all. Either way, he is very cute ! In the future, go with a long time breeder of high color dragons that can show you pics of the parents....then you'll know what you're really getting. Breeders like A-1 reptiles, Rainbow bearded dragons, Excalibur dragons, Spice Dragons all carry high end reds.
