Very nice, what's so unusual about the 2nd picture?
 
Wow, that dark eyed Taricha is really striking! Those eyes really capture you. I love the normal Taricha, but that's just unusual.
 
Sorry i read it wrong I thought it said "and a more unusual specimen."
 
Beautiful pictures as always Ester. Who couldn't love a Taricha? Those black eyes are amazing, I'm blown away!

The one thing I love about all of your pictures is your Tarichas looks like they have been having a great time playing in the dirt. They remind me of little kids who need their faces wiped. I chuckle every time I see a picture of one of your Tarichas and there is dirt hanging from its face.
Correct me if I am wrong but I do not think the first Taricha is blind. Enigma is a fancy word for something that can't be explained. I would like to know also though, because the eyes come out passed the top part of the head in the pictures are they torosa?
 
The dark eyed one is definitely not blind, she just lacks the yellow/gold pigment in the eyes. As for granulosa/torosa, I simply can't tell. I have never seen a 100% certified torosa and Pin pin always tells me torosa is rare in the pet trade, even if it as sold as such doesn't mean it has to be a torosa.
And yes, I too believe they are a happy band of merry making newts who enjoy life, each other, wax worms, earth worms, blood worms..
