Do you have any more examples of them? I have been interested to see what they look like.

Wow he sorta looks like a combination of all the indo species. Really interesting... where do these photos come from? Do you know the person who has this animal?
Do not go where the path may lead, go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.

No. as far as I know, these are a very very rare BTS here in the US if they are even still here at all.

Very cool!! He looks kind of like Riff-Raff, my gigas-inbetweener, except Riff-Raff has none of the Kei look going on the sides (which really makes that BTS stand out). Very unique animal, love the combined look of all T. gigas species.
