For mine Ivo I would say it is a first generation Golden Leopard. The Asian breeders have now developed GL's with far more red spotting. The first generation were very much hit and miss with the red spots.

Hi G, i didn't say mine is a GL in fact i wasnt sure what strain it is so i posted the picture for people to identify, but then when i saw mistake r crucial's GL photo i thought they look rather similar.
