Your Questions Answered
How orange will this dragon get?
The Orange Crush lineage is bred for strong orange expression. Combined with the Hypo gene, you can expect bright orange bars, highlights, and often a clean, pale background. Color continues to develop and intensify for 12-18 months.
What does "Hypo" mean for this morph?
Hypomelanism reduces black and dark brown pigment. This results in clearer colors, fewer dark markings, and often lighter nails and eyes. It makes the orange and yellow colors appear more vivid and less patterned.
Is the dragon healthy and eating?
Yes. Every animal is visually health-checked and confirmed feeding before shipping. One note from our staff: a customer once reported an issue that turned out to be related to their setup, not the animal. We ensure it leaves our facility in prime condition and provide care guidance.
