Napalm Pastel x Yellow Belly
At 8 months and 700 grams he has become a GREAT first season breeder. He LOVES the "big boned" girls. :D

Can't wait to see what the Napalm proves out to be, if its something we've already seen or new. Should produce some killer babies can't wait to see them.

Mom is an "average looking" Pastel -- nothing special. :)

Napalm background:
I got him in the spring of 2007 -- all 65 grams of him. ;)
Eric Davies (Fire founder) has seen him(Napalm) and has no doubt he will make a Black Eyed Leucy when bred back to his daughters. He also thinks their might be a second gene at work as well -- he thought an Axanthic type gene. Eric was very gracious and excited about the project. He gave me complete support to name it my line of Fire.
After some thought , I decided that I would be consistent with naming and follow what I did with my Cajun. While the Cajun has some similarity to Het Reds, Joe Compel's Brown Back, and BHB's Lori Ball -- it is not directly related and has differences -- and will likely make a somewhat different super.
I have a Davies line Fire male that has been breeding up a storm this season. Between the Napalm, Napalm Pastel, and Fire -- I should have more than enough girls to hold back. Maybe will let go of a few as well. It will be a few years before they will be breedable to prove the Napalm Super and find out if the Napalm will be compatible with the Fire -- my best guess is that they will be. But as they say -- you've got to breed it to know for sure. I could look into picking up a sub adult/adult Fire female this year to speed the process up a bit.
The breeding I am doing the season with both males will begin to show what is going on with him.
Both animals are SHOCKINGLY BRIGHT after a shed. There are some other pics in my photo albums -- including some belly shots of the Napalm.
Exciting project for me I must say. :banana: I am fortunate that they are both breeding well this season. I'll post pics, babies, and info as the project unfolds.
I am not a big proponent in secrets and partial truths with projects -- and I am not withholding any facts about the animals or their breedings. I just don't know "everything" -- YET. ;) It will take some time to hatch some clutches to see what is going on with the project. Thanks ever so much for the kind/supportive responses.
Re: Napalm Pastel x Yellow Belly
dear god and you're shooting for a triple codom napalm(assuming it proves out as a codom) pastel YB?
Can anyone say EYE-GLARINGLY-BRIGHT YELLOW???
Good luck, and assuming you get a clutch that turns out well, make sure to bring those sunglasses when they start to hatch! :D

You win brownie points with me. Down with secrets/partial truths about morph projects!
