Personally I consider it a colony because its not a frag of another piece, the idea of a "colony" to people is something super large, but I dont consider it a frag because theres nothing it was fragged from. This is the original piece. Its a good 3" in size. With that being said, who wants a frag? Haha yeah right...I'm not cutting up this bad boy its wayyyyyyyy too pretty to disfigure it
