VPI Axanthic Pinstripe
I first thought about this cross in 2005 when I got my first Pinstripe pair. The male didn't breed that year, and I talked to Brian at BHB about the project, and the possibility of getting an adult Axanthic female from him the following year. In 2006, I didn't have an adult Axanthic female. However, in 2007, my Axanthic boy bred my Pin girl, and I got a Pin Het Axanthic male. Of course Brian beet me to the project goal, but I still wanted one of my own. My Pin Het boy finally bred in 2008, but I missed the cross in 2009 out of three clutches.
Finally in 2010 (this weekend to be exact), after 32 eggs and 15 Pinstripes out of those eggs, I finally hit one male VPI Axanthic Pinstripe. I couldn't have been more excited. I have been building that excitement for 5 years now. I have big plans for this guy (first up is a Spider Het Axanthic girl), and still have 10 eggs from Pin Het to Axanthic (so maybe I can get a couple more). Here is the pic. Thanks for looking.

Thanks Everyone.
Thanks for all of the compliments. Axanthic Spinners are definitely on the lasi, as well as Axanthic Lemon Blasts. After that, I am not sure what to do . Although, I do have a Lesser Het girl that might get plugged into the mix. I think she will see the Axanthic Enchi first though. I can't wait to start some more Axanthic crosses in the next year or two.
