Light Normal??

I have a pair of 2010 100% het Pied that I have only had for 2 shed cycles. One looks just like a Normal but the other seems to have turned a golden yellow colour :confused:

She also looks really 'clean' with a clear belly. She did look different to the other het but only changed during her last shed. From whatI have read about fires she looks like that.

Here are some pics (sorry about quallity of pics). They really don't show the colour difference! She is yellow!

Any thoughts? Nice normal or something else?

Normal looking BP vary tremendously from dark to very light, from high gold to brown, from busy pattern to reduced, from high blush to no blush etc

I don't see anything out of the ordinary here.

Yeah thats why I asked. Can normals have a clear belly?

Should have also added the normal with her is her sib. I can get pics with a few other normals that look more like normals lol.

Ok cool. Any idea why she changed so much after one shed?

My first 2 normal girls, one was really dark and the other had almost a pastel dorsal stripe. Well after their last sheds, they are both getting really light dorsal stripes:confused:
Normals from breeders...........its hard to tell what might be in them till you prove them out.;)
Both of these girls are going with my pastel when they are ready:D

Yeah I will be breeding her to the other het and then may try her with a fire... if she is just a nice normal i'll end up with fire pos het pieds

Normals do vary in color and pattern regardless of their parents or whether they are sibs or not. And for me, that's what makin this hobby a special. They are like a box of chocolates. You just dont know what you'll get (til it hatches and proves out) lol :)
