Enough for a Carrot Tail?

[Sirron]

I have a lovely SHTB with some orange on her tail (tip regen). I don't know if this is enough to be considered a carrot tail. I'm pretty sure she'll get more as she sheds out. So do I have SHTCTB?

Yeah its around 15%, it may be 85% for a PURE carrot tail.

Well she has at least 15% of her current tail

I say carrot tail stops where the black spots begin and the black spots start almost at the base of the tail. So I say no.

She's still pretty young so after a few sheds the orange might get brighter. I guess I'll just have to wait and see.

I agree. When they say that for it to be considered a Carrot Tail it must be ATLEAST 15%, i believe this refers to how much of the tail is SOLID orange, not broken up orange. Thats how i understand it.

Me too. I don't think that's enough carrot tail. I have a baby Tangerine and possibly a carrot tail and Super Hypo. It is about 5 months old and has more Carrot tail than that. But if those blotches of non carrot tail fill in she's definitely a carrot tail.
