    To Dink or Not to Dink..

    I got this brother and sister last summer from a local breeder, they are the normal offspring of a Mojave X Funky looking normal CH female. I've always thought (and still think) they are just spiffy normals. But yesterday I met someone who use to go on a forum that I use to go on as well. He swore up and down that Lilith was a granite or something else of that nature.

    What do you think?
    (Ignore the hand, sunlight was coming through giving all sorts of over exposure)


    And here is her brother Lucian, I love his light coloration, I hope to one day pair him up to a pinstripe.

    See the face?

    I don't think granite, but that neck spot is something to consider......

    And the male has a really bright head pattern.

    ive been playing with this for some time enough to where i have started picking up similar looking ch animals for the project. so far i have 2 different males to try out. both look really close to the animal pictured and both were hatched from gravids that had more then a few granites in the clutch.

    Reminds me a lot of an interesting animal at my work, his offspring look a lot like ebonys with that really dark color and speckly pattern. When in doubt, dink it out!
