A few Hatchlings

I keep getting dark sable-ish/ granite looking babies from one of my old females. It doesn't seem to matter which male I breed her to. Here's a few from this year. What do you guys think? Just normal or maybe something else.

I love the top and middle ones. I don't have a second setup, but I'd consider buying from you if I did. :rolleyes:

They don't look normal to me. That first one is a stunner!

You might have something in that 1st one. :gj:

Have you bred any of her sons back to her? Definitely an interesting granite pattern.

Do you know what happened to Oedipus? :fishslap:
All kidding aside, I really wanna know what that first one is.

Isn't it really bad to inbreed?

I have not bred any back to mom yet. I sold all of them in the last 4 years of producing them. I'm really not into the dark morphs, but I don't want to be selling them as normals if they are something else. i guess the only way to tell is by proving them out.

What about the black outlining the alien eyes on the #2 and #3 pics? The only other morph I've seen that on is a black pastel, which I do not think these are.

Definately an interesting pattern for sure!

you should post pics of momma. Id say granite for sure but those do look black pastel-ish

Very nice and interesting hatchlings! I would hang on to at least one and breed it back! Nice job man!! :gj:

I would really like to know I have an adult female that has that same pattern.

I'll work on mom pics. She looks nothing like the babies. She's really just dark looking.

Very interesting. I would definitely keep one back and breed it to the mom. You could be selling off something awesome and not know it. You could also breed one of them to a different normal female and see if they pass anything on.

Looking forward to seeing mom.

It would also be helpful to know what males have been bred to her.

The first 2 years was a very dark striped "normal" male. Year 3 was a reduced patterned Poss. Black Belly. This year (year 4) was a spider male. Most have been "peppered", but I think the outlined alien eyes may be coming from the spider.

Here's an older pic of mom. She was ovulating and in her "glowing" stage. She is normally much darker.
