So, my T is a curly hair. Due to his long, white curly hairs, he looks much closer to a Nicaraguan than a Honduran, so much so that I initially assumed he was a Nicaraguan. However, a much more experienced keeper on this forum informed me that he is indeed Honduran form. His hairs are curly, but not curly enough to look like a true Nicaraguan form. But Honduran forms look like OP's (darker straight hairs) and not at all like mine (curly white hairs). This has led me to believe he is a mixed breed. So I believe if you see a curly hair T that has white hairs that aren't super curly, but rather just have a slight curl, it may be safe to assume it is a possible mixed breed. Here is a picture of my supposed mixed curly hair to give you an idea of what one looks like. Hope this helps!</p></blockquote><p></p>
