We originally thought she was an irminia that was dull and needed to molt. After molting she still looked strange, more like a cambridgei but not quite right. We showed pictures to some highly experienced breeders who thought it could have been a hybrid. We did produce our own irminia and none look like that one did. Mature males of irminia and cambridgei look very similar and it's very likely that someone bred an irminia with a cambridgei. Irminia definitely look like irminia as juveniles.</p></blockquote><p></p>
