Do you think this is a reduced pattern Clown?

Finally scored the Clown male I have been looking for! Picking him up from Sean at Exotics by Nature.

I already have a few ideas for him...

I will post up some more pics when Sean hooks me up after he sheds.

You need to take so many photos when you get him. Omg.

Well......:O



After careful consideration,:weirdface















I suppose you could call him reduced pattern. :eyepoppin

That thing is awesome. Very nice pickup. We require a vid and more photos when you can. :gj:

Wow how beautiful! U sure its not just a wierd lookin g-stripe lol! Congrats on the awesome pickup. More pics ASAP please!

That's nice! The rest of the clutch is also very reduced. Great line to work with, congrats.

WHAT THE &*^*&%$*^$*&^)*&^(%$*%^$ ?!?!?!?!?!?! Im calling Sean. Whatever your paying him, Ill double it! Lol jk. Congrats on that AMAZING clown!

Holy crap. Is that just a clown? That thing is crazy!!! I'll take two :)

Holy. Cow.

*cue little Toy Story aliens* OoOooooooOOoOooO!!

He clown'd so hard he accidentally g-striped all over the place :O

Amazing addition! Bravo! :gj:

I shared this picture on facebook! I couldn't believe what I was seeing! I didn't even know they put him up for sale! lol Great pickup.

Is there enchi in the clown? Or is it just a very nice clown?

He is just a very nice Clown, BUT Sean also has a genetic RP thing going on with this line, as you can see with the hets.

He is a beauty! I am working with reduced patterned clowns as well and have found the hets also look reduced. Congrats on a great addition!:gj:

Now add pastel enchi and you have a flat line :D. Great looking clown!:O

I bet....Need to scoop up those hets. They are really hot too.

Yeah I plan to make my own hets to go for the super of the reduced pattern thing. He will be put to a Fire for sure, and likely a Enchi as well. Also possibly to my HGW Pin...

that makes a lot of sense, what if it turns out to be a different line of clowns?

anyway making your own hets gives you the best chance of getting more of these. it requires a bit of inbreeding, which i generally dont like unless there is a good reason to do it, but here we have a good reason i think.

Yeah, a generation or so of inbreeding will not be an issue.

Putting it to a Pin would be something else!!!

Holy cow that's an awesome clown!!!

so is it possible this is a multi gene animal? with the reduced pattern being its own morph? the reduced pattern hets look kinda like the diesel balls they have up in canada. if it is another gene at play, the clown could throw busy clowns too. regardless, that thing is sick. the spotnose clown that ben rennick produced looked crazy busy and it was awesome. it makes me wonder what spotnose would look with a reduced clown like this. you just got a spotnose didnt you? ;)

Your SS has a stripey friend now

oh, right.....


its a clutch picture, so everyone assumed there are no other genes at play.... but what are the genetics of the parents?

(just speculating.... but to me it looks closer to a clown x super enchi het clown breeding than it does to a clown x het clown breeding somehow. Even if not, and if its just the product of using totally reduced normals for this clown project, there still may be genes at play).

And if i may ask, how much did you pay for it? i imagine the price was very high.

Not exactly sure what the pairing was. From my understanding, there is something else going on with reduced pattern and it has a Super form. He is not a Super, just a especially nice RP. The Supers seem to have reduced head markings as well.

As for price, he was being advertised for $2K.

Super nice looking clown! congrats!

Thanks! Can't wait to see him in person.
