Thanks Emily! Me too..... I'm hoping that one will be a girl. :D
So I'm guessing that you just never know what your gonna get? Cause it looks like some have some partial pinning??? And what of the base color? Simpler and Petra are both so dark when they fire up... in your **rach wrangling** experience :P Do you think that they will be as dark?

Cute little ones. I love how different they are, you are right it is like a box of Chocolates.
I can't get over how teeny tiny the babies are when they hatch out. Also like you said the difference a month can make, holy cow..

Thanks Kristy! They are ever changing.... it's really neat! I wish I knew what they were gonna look like! :oops:

you can tell to some extent what you will get when you breed 2 cresteds. petra has some pinstriping around her neck, so the partial pinstriping likely comes from her. it's also possible that simpler's parents have some pinstriping and so it is in his genes. i bred a full pinstripe male to a harley female with no pinstriping this season, really just hoping for some babies that were a good combo of the two. it's not too common to get full pins unless both parents are pins, but a good number of babies have come out as full or almost full pins, so that tells me it is highly likely that the female's parents had pinstriping, even though she doesn't. and now that i know she throws pins when paired with the right male i have breeding plans laid out for her for the next 5 years or so. :P
anyhow, the babies will probably have the dark base color that simpler and petra have and their harley/flame patterns will be either the same as his color or hers. if either of their parents had red or orange coloration a few of the babies might come out with some, but that's hard to say without knowing (and reds and oranges doesn't usually just pop up--those colors show up easier/more often when the parents are red/orange). the red/orangey color that they are showing right now is just baby color and will change as they get older.
