50/50 Diamond!!!

Hi peoples,i have one quite strange looking diamond which i keep as a pet and i've never seen one quite like it before.I'm sure there are others similar out there.This girl is almost half black and yellow half black and white in colouration.Her front half is almost all black and white which blends into a black and white with a sort of shimmer of yellow all through it.It's very hard to capture the true colours but here's a few pics showing her different colouration...she's definitely not a stunning high yellow or a nice black and white diamond with great markings but she is different which is what i like!....enjoy

RE: 50/50 Diamond!!!

hi browns,
after seeing your diamand up close today and being able to handle her, i've got to say that she is a really stunning looking diamond, if it was up to mum she would have taken her home today, i just thought i'd let everybody know that she is a top looking girl up close,

cheers,
steve.......
ps. that b/w jungle is a top looking girl also......

RE: 50/50 Diamond!!!

Thanks mate,welcome any time....that b/w girl is quite a looker isn't she!I was actually going to part with her but as i've said she's grown on me and i've had her since a hatchling so she's actually staying and going into an outdoor style enclosure as a type of feature in the garden which is yet another project :idea:

That's what she's like in the flesh also tourett........people sometimes have to look really close to see where the yellow and white etc is....i hope a pic in the sun brings it out better...i'll seeif i can get some pics tomorrow if it's not raining.

What sort of outdoor enclosure are you planning?

What outdoor enclosure designs have proven successful for diamonds?
