Re: Drastic colour change

Looks like a shed is imminent to me, will likely look lighter again afterward.

Re: Drastic colour change

She actually changes colour throughout the day and then back to normal pretty much every day I've had her.
I had heard they do this but didn't realise the vast difference in colour, she could be coming into shed but she was back light this morning

Re: Drastic colour change

Darker in the day, lighter at night. All BC do this to an extent, some more noticeable than others. Really cool.

Re: Drastic colour change

That's some colour change, it's like getting two snakes for the price of one
