    First Shed - Better idea of morph?

    Hi again all.

    Would you mind sharing your suggestions on morphs again? I have taken some better pictures and after their first sheds. I think this will make identifying them a little easier. Only 3 have shed so far, will update with others as and when. Parents were Nuclear Spider (butter, fire, spider) and Lemon Blast (pastel, pinstripe)

    First up, I am thinking Butter Pastel. Others have suggested Butterfly (Butter, Fire, Pastel) but I am not sure. Its looking female.




    Next up, I am thinking Butter Spinner (Butter, Pinstripe, Spider) - quite a bit of colour (brown) to its sides with a dark head so not sure about fire or pastel being in there. Looking female.




    Similar to the above, but since its shed there is a big difference. I am thinking Nuclear Spinner (Butter, fire, Pinstripe, spider) - But part of me is still thinking it may be the Nuclear Spinner Blast we hoped for (Butter, Fire, Pastel, Pinstripe, Spider) But I have never seen a baby of these to compare against. Looking female



    Looking like we had 4 girls and 2 boys.

    Has anyone got any ideas? I will be keeping these anyway, so I am sure I will be able to identify them more easily in time but it would be great to hear peoples views now after their sheds

    The first one I would guess Butterfly and only because before I started reading and saw what the pairing was I immediately thought superfly but then saw that was not possible with that pairing ..... As for the rest ... I can't even take a stab at them .... They are all gorgeous none the less!!

    Without vast experience of identifying morphs (learning though ) the first one seems to be Butterfly. The 3rd one has most of the markets for nuclear spinner blast but I'm not 100% just due to not knowing enough of what to look for

    The first looks to be a butterfly to me, that head is far too light to be a butter/pastel.

    The other 2 for sure have spider in them, and also appear to have pinstripe. The hardest part is deciding which of the other 3 genes are at play, since they all do very similar things. If I were to guess I'd say they both also have butter, but only 1 of them has either pastel or fire.

    Good luck.

    Thanks for the input, much appreciated I am still pretty new to 3 gene+ combo's ive only ever had two gene combo's before (aside from the nuclear spider) so this was an exciting experiment for me!

    Thats exactly the problem I am having, I can rule out Spider, Pinstripe and butter (they have brown spinning so has to be butter, without butter they would be black) But its adding pastel and fire into the mix that is proving tricking to figure out. And having never seen any of these in the flesh before I can't figure it out just yet.

    The latter of the two definitely has a cleaner, more yellow/cream base colour so I am thinking it may have 1 gene more than the other. But fire, or pastel?... Not a clue

    Thanks again all
