Kind of bummed about his eyes but I love him anyway! He rocks!!!
Next out was a male Lesser or Butter...or whatever you want to call it. :D

My other clutch is about 2 weeks away from hatching. Female Spider to Lesser male again. He was backed up by a Pastel. Hoping for Lesser Bees but it's all good. This is only my third year of breeding so even seeing normals pop out is still exciting! :D

They are definitely one of my faves as well. When I first got into balls a few years ago I was blown away by the white snakes people were hatching. Would have never dreamed I'd hatch my own! :O Now to figure out how to photograph them...all I have is a little point and shoot Canon Powershot something or other...all that white plays havoc with it...:rolleye2:
Re: Lesser X Butter clutch hatched
Nice clutch congrats on the BEL.....cannot wait until I can post that :D That normal is awesome looking as well. Great color to her with an awesome pattern!!
Re: Lesser X Butter clutch hatched
Nice! I remember the feeling I had when I hatched mt first BEL. It was definitely a great day. Congrats.
Re: Lesser X Butter clutch hatched
Congrats! Whats wrong with his eyes? I dont see anything in the pics
Re: Lesser X Butter clutch hatched
And a very gorgeous BEL at that! So, when you hatch out a butter to lesser clutch, what do you sell the babies as? Does it matter since they are close to the same morph? Very exciting to see so many wonderful little plumpkins :) Congrats!
I'm considering a lesser/butter to put with Clyde, hince my curiosity. :)

I would probably advertise it as a Lesser and then let the potential buyer know it was from a butter to lesser pairing. They can then call it whatever they want...:)

Forgot a pic of the happy couple...they did all the work afterall...:D

Re: Lesser X Butter clutch hatched
Gorgeous! So, let me guess. The one with the body on top and head on the bottom is the lesser? Or, is the darker one the lesser? I'm going to go with the lighter one being the lesser....final answer.

Yup...Lesser Claypool is the lighter one...Butters is a little darker...:gj:
Re: Lesser X Butter clutch hatched
Congratulations! Love the BEL despite the wee bug eye.
Yeah, I was going to say - how would you pick butter from lesser (I happen to still believe they are the same thing - and the very fact that one can't tell (with 100% confidence) which is which in the same clutch sort of backs that up! LOL).
It's a beautiful clutch!

Yeah...at the time I bought them I had heard of eye issues with lesserxlesser and thought I was maybe dodging that going with a Butter. Oh well. Guess I should have gone with mojoxbutter..would have been cheaper. :rolleyes::)
