Progress Shots

I took some progress photos this morning. The Shiro, which I have named 'Hebi', was 20" as a nisai left in inventory over her third season. She now measures 26". Over the past year the Sumi on her head has risen as a few spots with underlying shadows and then disappeared. This has occurred twice, one time in summer when water temps were around 80F. Definitely not ready to set her face pattern yet. So, she has something of a speckly Bekko look right now. Nonetheless, I am pleased with the development of the shiroji. Still on the thin side, but starting to gain a bit of weight.
