Re: Crystal ball?
Oh wow...so it's already at breeding age and noone knows what it is....hmm.... Is it a boy or a girl? Have they hatched out any of it's babies yet?

One would first have to figure out how Tom got a Platty Daddy, given only Ralph owns one ;).

Maybe I'm wrong... but there'd be no reason to keep it a secret if the "special female" were a one-of-a-kind.

Re: Crystal ball?
I donno yet I plan on sending the owner a freindly email asking him what he thinks will be available when the eggs hatch?, and when they should hatch?, and what was the female in the pic, a normal? I will keep you guys posted with his responses.

Good luck with that, you'll be dropping a few k! And actually the crystal male is for sale last I heard;) . Tom has pastel crystals as well... I wouldn't expect too many answers from him about the female...I know I wouldn't tell the secret of my projects to someone I didn't know....in fact I bet he'd just tell you..."she's "special"". LMAO

Re: Crystal ball?
Lol Hey its worth a try. Hes selling the male for 15,000. I donno yet if its been sold. I just asked him what will he expect to get out of eggs hes producing to that normal. Co-doms?,or Hets. Just so he can paint me some kind of picture what that morph can be

You wouldn't say that if you remembered back to the dozens and dozens of wild caught yellow belly ads that inundated the classifieds once it was proven that REAL yellowbellies created the Ivory ball. If Tom posted pics of the female, every importer in the country would be posting ads of similar looking CH normals with ridiculous prices on them.

Re: Crystal ball?
The special female is not a common morph. If this were the case, then maybe someone else would have hit on it already, other than BHB.
I have had the chance to talk to Tom in person, and he is not letting the cat out of the bad ANY time soon.

Well yes, a relatively "normal" looking morph may be the culprit as well. It's not hard to remember the ads... they are still around. Heck, there's still a constant influx of CH "Pastel Looking" ads on KS and FC relatively often.
It's only a matter of time before someone hits it that isn't nearly as ethical as Brian... and out we have the combination for the Crystal.
