I PURCHASED A MALE LEO FROM MIKE IN OCTOBER. HE WAS ABOUT 4 INCHES WITH VERY LIGHT SPOTS AS PUPS HAVE. HE IS NOW BOUT A FOOT IN DIAMETER AND TURNING OUT GREAT. I POSTED SOME PICS OF HIM AND PEOPLE TELL ME THAT IT LOOKS LIKE HE IS ECLIPSE. IS THAT POSSIBLE. MAYBE MIKE CAN TELL ME IF HE COULD BR FROM A ECLIPSE RAY PARENT. AND DO THEY EVEN CHANGE AT THAT SIZE. HE HAS ABOUT 14 OUT OF ABOUT 60 SPOTS SEEM TO BE GETTING GREY IN THE MIDDLE AND SOME ARE TURNING JET BLACK. ANY INSIGHT FROM U BLACK RAY EXPERTS WOULD BE GREAT

YUM! Can we see before pup pics as well please?
 
It has been observed in Amazonian studies that there is usually a bacteria present in the circles formed by 'eclipsing', but the scientist was unable to say if it caused the eclipsing or was simply an opportunist. What you got there is imo a regular Leo, nice. Certainly Eclipse Leos are found clustered in specific areas of the Xingu around Sao Felix

Also, gotta ask....you are able to spend $$$thousands on rays, how about $10 for a replacement keyboard without a stuck caps lock? people throw out old keyboards all the time, probably you could easily get one for free, or Craig's list, for killers and keyboards.

just a thought

thats how eclipsing starts.... its something 99% of leopoldi do... not really a fancy trait

This is an interesting thought about the bacteria (and keyboard :)). So if you had treated your wildcaught eclipse rays for bacteria and then later down the road they had pups would they be eclipsed ?
 
What I'd really like to know is.........

Would Carlos getting a new keyboard CAUSE an eclipse?
