Yea I say black and white. You can tell from the lines down its sides. Like bubblz said could be an extreme but you can't tell. Some normals will look like extremes and vice versa. Only way to be sure would be from the breeder.

I see some extreme characteristics there but they're not the best pics to really say. But either way extreme or not, still a black and white :).

Something you picked/ing up or just looking into?

Some people say that the shapes of the head are different. I'm not sure about what goes to what but supposedly one has a more round head while the other has a more pointed head.

Your right. Normals do have a pointed face. And most ex streams have a round head.

You have it backwards

They all have pointed faces but extremes are supposed to have even more pointed faces and more defined eye sockets.

A full body, in focus, not so close pic from the side and one top angle would help. He has the blushing and diamonds which makes me lean toward extreme.

Did you get any history on it from the previous owner?

Body wise my eyes say yes to extreme but the head's not quite right particularly around the eyes and cheeks. Even with out all the scars

Unless you can track it's history through the previous owner, the only other way to figure out if it's carrying something extra is to breed it.

its an extreme I'm 99.9% positive, one way I can tell is by the markings on his hind legs, extremes are white with black markings whereas normals are black with white markings, the head does appear a bit off I'm guessing lack of nutrition or uvb either way it still looks pretty good
