I am just seeing this thread for the first time. My very first reaction when I saw the pic was "incubation issue" as there was a post on here a year or 2 ago with someone whose pastel clutch came out looking crazy leopard clown and it was just from an incubation temp problem...not genetic. My clutch last year pipped on day 54 and was out in 24 hours. I incubate at 87*. Day 76 is way over due.....sounds like there were incubation issues that causes that color/pattern weirdness and deformity. Sorry the little guy didn't make it. Keep us posted on the others. Like stated above, usually the "holy cow" with no explanation animals can be explained with temps.
