You have a RES, I wonder how old she is. You can see where the red markings have darkened so they're hardly noticeable. She's a nice-looking lady. :)

When you're a deadite skeleton, life isn't filled with a lot of options. So they make the best of it by playing dead – Which is why we like to introduce them to Mr. Shotgun, who doesn't give them the opportunity to pretend there anything but Chalk.

RES, definitely. I think if you get a good UVB light for her (they love to bask) then the colors of her head will become more prominant over time. :)

She's beautiful! Congratulations!
