Low end translucent?

[nathang]

Is my female veiled a really low end translucent? In her feet?

 

[Sang]

Nope. i have seen that on several babies, the pigment tends to dissapear torwards the bottom of the feet and kinda suround the base/sides of the feet.


they will darken up as she gets older.

 

[nathang]

OK, thanks, shes 8 months if that makes a difference

Yeah, she's not a tranz..my female veild is about a year old and she has the same thing on her feet!

translucent refers to an appearance they take on of transparent skin on their legs/head/tail and sometimes part of the body. kinda like pied ball pythons. its a similar mutation in vieled that give a see through look or a pinkish tinge on the body.


FL chams has a few pictures/available of trans vieleds.

Here'sa pic of a trans..see the legs? Theres no skin pigment..it's just clear..where a normal cham would have green "Skin" Pigmentation..

Just had a thought... I can't wait for the day that they have an entirely translucent veiled... I wonder what that would look like.
It will happen, too. They've done such crazy things to the colors in clownfish that it's bound to happen to Veilds too, just give it time.

 

[KShook]

Nope..it is a "Defect"..but it dosent hurt them..it's like people..they lose the pigmintation in there skin and is just white.

 

[KShook]

well they have High End tranz chams...it's not on their body though..it's the legs head and tail..here's a pic of a full tranz from FLCHAMS. Pretty Awesome!!!

 

[Sang]

they kinda creep me out in all honesty.

to see a fully translucent vieled would be even creepier.

 

[KShook]

ha yeah..everyone has there oppinions abot tranz veilds..i personaly like them! But thats just me!
