    I saw it! I dont think its a hybrid though. I mean, since when did hybrids magically change their pattern halfway down their body? That doesnt even happen in extreme crosses. Its probably some sort of rare genetic disorder or a flaw that happened during incubation... I cant see it being the result of hybridization.
