The pattern is different from most sen's I've seen, she looks very healthy.:)
 
Mine had 2 of those like pattern reversals, not symetrical on either side. I just assumed a fight when a baby
 
I also had a female Senegal with an odd scale pattern, though it was smaller and less pronounced than yours. Looking good!

Very nice! Ive personally never seen that sort of pattern!
 
Interesting. I once had wild caught teugelsi's which all had these type of marks, I always thought it was because of being stuck / caught in a net. Is the senegal wild caught or captive bred?
 
Mine has mismatched pattern in a spot as well. It seems their scales are like hair, they get cowlicks like we do on our heads and it makes their scales grow in a different direction

these are captive bred. got as 1in babies. it wasn't until this one started growing WAY more than the others that i noticed the pattern
