very nice dragons everyone.... Do the hypo dragons still change in shades of colour, from light to dark; becoming darker in cooler weather and vice-versa?
 
Not a fan of the lack of beardy spikes but they're very cute still :)

Yes the hypos do change colour still- just not as much. They don't get as dark. (Well, mine don't anyway) :)

they can't get dark as they have no black hence Hypomelanistic meaning no black but they can come in all colours

I understand what hypo means, I was just wondering if they always stayed the high colours. I use to keep high coloured dragons like the high reds from rick walker. I ended up getting out of them mainly because I got sick of dealing with live insects but always because even the best looking bright red male dragon will turn brick brown at times so I wondering if the leather back, trans or hypo genes effected this at all

I think you will find they are all capable of change,it's a pity but they don't stay beautiful all the time

leatherbacks are looking amazing but the silkies just look a bit deformed to me.
