He proved out (I think)

I bred my poss male granite to a female that I think has something kind of going on with her. She laid 8 eggs and 5 have come out. All five have some very nice head patterns and some granite speckling but they are also very busy patterned and have the spotty bands like mom. They aren't like crazy unusual but they aren't quite normal. Not sure what to make of them yet. Camera battery went dead but when it is charged I'll post some pics of them.
This is mom last year she gave me 5 eggs. 2 of them had black backs with the squiggles on them the other 3 were pastels.

They do look just like mom! Gonna breed a male back to her? I like the small squiggles/dots in some of their circles... :gj:

Yep the baby pictured is about 600 grams now and male. The other is a female. This year's hatchlings even look more like her with different degrees of speckling from the granite. Out of the 5 that have crawled out 3 of them have very cool head patterns like dad but the 2 of them have distinct spots at the back of the head like mom.

Congrats, that baby pictured is smoking!

Good luck with breeding him back to her.... be interesting to see what happens! :)

Here are the best pictures I could get of them for now. I am going to wait until they have thier first shed to take more. Sorry some pics aren't the best.

First Hatchling
He has a really cool neck break which you can see better in another picture farther down. They all have head spots of sorts but they are hard to take pictures of and some are nicer than others. Hoping they pop more when they shed. They also have the spotty bands of thier mom and some speckling of dad, I just don't know if mom's genes overroad the dad's genes with the speckling or maybe they are all just nice normals.

No thoughts?

beautiful clutch, curious to see how this all turns out for you.

Thank you I appreciate it. I think I will have a better feel about them after they shed.

Well, they definitely don't look like your average alien head markings. Just normals with interesting patterns? I don't know. I'd definitely do some line breeding to see if something crazy pops out.

Even if they are "just normals", I think they are gorgeous. I love cool patterns they have!
