    Want to hear your stories of "normals that weren't"...

    You keep hearing and seeing the question "is my BP a...?" or a "....." (insert spotnose,YB, enchi, etc,.) Who out there actually has "discovered" their normal was, in fact, NOT just a normal? (where before they always thought it was) I was just thinkin out loud, how cool that would be from people who actually experienced this. Pics would be nice too!

    Lots of people sell male het albinos, het ghosts, etc as normals. So i'm sure something has popped up down the line.

    There are plenty of posts and threads about how people see Pastels mixed in with the Normals at pet stores

    Yeah, but you can definately tell the difference between a pastel and a normal.

    Re: Want to hear your stories of "normals that weren't"...

    I am gonna get it wrong, but one of our members bred either two normals, or her het albino male to a normal female and hatched out albinos.

    Another person I remember got a pregnant female that was being co-housed with a male, both bought at a pet store and hatched out Orange Ghosts.

    But in terms of obvious morphs, I know of one person in CAN that I believe got a chocolate female and bred her to a pin thinking she was a normal female and hatched out Jigsaws (that is a chocolate pin right?).
