    Most expensive normals I've ever bought
    Here is my 2.3 double het clown hypos. Despite being classified as recessive, both morphs are known to have subtle influence in het form. Het hypo tends to make the animals brighter, which is hard to compare from single pictures, also note none of my pictures are fresh sheds. Now het clown on the other hand I always knew something looked "off" about them, but could never pin point what it was. I didn't plan on jumping into this project any time soon so I can honestly say I didn't look very hard. Well now I did. The one thing I guess that is consistent about my animals is the randomness of their patterns, more notably near their tail. I was curious if other het clowns tended to have the same influence or what people might think the het clown influence is exactly? Most of my animals have a typical pattern that follows reasonably through the animal, these guys on the other hand seem pretty random. on the other hand it could just be the group i picked up.

    Here's my group, females...

    I hope you got them with paperwork from a well known breeder.

    Being double het might be influencing them differently than just being het clown on it's own.
    They have a few similarities to my hets but not a ton.

    Some of the aliens in my het clowns tend to drip into the belly and there tends to be a lot of white surrounding the inner part of the aliens.
    There also tends to be a light yellowy gold along the spine from neck stripe on back on many of the hets, especially the morph hets.

    There also seems to be a similar head spot on all of my hets and some of the morph hets too.

    You can really see the het clown influence in some morphs, like this butter het clown.

    To me paperwork don't mean a thing, but they still came with paperwork. I got them from Steve Winkler. So far the snakes have been problem free, assuming they prove out, which I have no reason to doubt him right now. Otherwise I wouldn't of bought them.

    I see some of the influence I was talking about on some of them, some not. I also notice that dorsal stripe on a few different morph hets, all of my het hypos have it, at least as babies. Thanks for the pics and insight, looks like you should be making some nice stuff in the coming years :)

    Thanks,
    I have to believe the het hypo is influencing the over all look of yours.

    Your right about paperwork, it doesn't guarantee anything, but it's nice to have for proof down the road especially if you end up having to sell them before proving them.

    Good luck :gj:
