Description

This dark red male leatherback bearded dragon shows off the smooth, reduced scale texture that gives leatherback dragons their signature glossy, almost polished appearance, paired here with deep, saturated red coloring that really lets that texture shine.

Genetically, he carries even more potential beneath the surface. He is het for both hypo and translucent traits, meaning he does not visually display either but can pass them along when paired correctly, and he is a possible het for genetic stripe, an exciting pattern trait for anyone building out a striping project. For breeders looking to combine leatherback texture with hypo, translucent, or striping genetics down the line, he represents a genuinely versatile addition.

Beyond the genetics, he is simply a healthy, well proportioned male with a calm and confident temperament, raised from hatchling age on proper heat, UVB lighting, and a varied diet, so he is ready to thrive in an experienced home or breeding setup alike.
