08_clutch#006 - Hatched! - Spider, Mojave & Cinnamon X Normal - 4 eggs

=

3.0 Cinnamons
0.1 Normal

Notes: Not a single female Cinny! :( This clutch is one of the VERY few co-dom clutches I'll have this year, nice to see the morph-to-normal ratio come out so well.

Can someone point out to me what this Pied Marker is?
I've heard this and I'm trying to figure it out but I've had no luck.

What is a Pied Marker. I know its a trait for pied het.s but I don't know exactly what it physically is.. :snake:

It's an overall look, but mostly what people refer to is a black bordered clear belly, particularly in the last 1/3 of the body.

I hope this helps!

Thank you! Sorry for interrupting your topic. :oops:

08_clutch#018 - 5/23/08 - Piebald x Poss. het Piebald - 3 eggs & 2 slugs

http://www.jkobylkareptiles.com/Imag..._clutch_18.jpg

Looks like you are having a good year Justin. I have two incubators full right now and it looks like I am going to have to power up another one so this year should turn out great for a lot of people. Good luck on Pieds with this clutch!

Thank you Brock... It looks like with my clutch distribution I'm barely going to avoid needing a 2nd incubator... whew! :) Of course needing another incubator is a good problem to have. ;)

XD No kidding! Wish I needed one incubator this year...

But it's okay, I get to live vicariously through you!!

Congratulations and good luck!

Keep rolling Justin!!:rockon:

No picture...

08_clutch#007 - Hatched! - Piebald X Normal - 7 eggs

=

4.3 Het Pieds

Notes: Mom was this beautiful ch "apricot" girl and all these hets definitely are a cut above with great color! The first 4 babies out of the eggs were boys and I was starting to sweat it! The girls were just being shy though... :)

http://www.jkobylkareptiles.com/Imag...lutch_07_h.jpg

Additional Notes: The first baby out is this awesome ringer boy. Its the best ringer I've yet to hatch. Just a little something extra. :) He really wants to be a piebald!

Additional, Additional Notes: As part of the continuing sharing of information regarding het pied marker traits, here is a picture of all seven bellies from this clutch:

Comments welcome!

Additional Comments Cubed: I marked clutch #07 earlier in this thread as being sired by both the pastel het pied and the pied. It was a typo that I later caught when I was checking records... :oops:

Thanks!

Justin

That's a sweet looking little ringer! :cool:

Doesnt that little ringer of white, make it a pied??????

I don't think so Pat, because it doesn't have an aberrant pattern, the rest of it is just normal lookin. I could be wrong though.

I think it's just heterozygous for pied. Meaning only one allele is of that particular gene. We think in terms of recessive and codominant. The pied gene seems to be a little of both. It's het form shows a distinct phenotype but not always. Such an interesting gene...

NO. It's a het not a homozygous pied. It's called a ringer not a pied for a reason. :)

Yes it is... I happen to think there's something extra going on with that particular one.... Kind of a crazy head pattern among other things.

08_clutch#013 - Hatched! - Albino X Het Albino - 6 eggs

=

4.2 Het Albinos

Note: As I've long suspected I was scammed on this het albino female. 2 years of breeding her to an Albino and a total of 12 eggs = no albinos.

Got her about 4 years ago from a private party. Not someone who is in the business now. I've always had my doubts but just let the project play out! :weirdface

Justin,

Have I missed the clutch I'm supposed to be watching for? ;)
