Yellowbelly or not video :)

Here is a video that we made to determine if there is a YB gene in our Pinstripe or Lesser, since the babies that we hatched (the normals) don't look normal at all :D.

Hope some of you experienced guys might help us figure out what is going on here :).

Definitely 2 yb (at least) in that clutch 100% sure. I think its in the pin parent personally.

The vid isn't playing (i'm on tapatalk). Anyone got a direct youtube link?

Here is the direct link:

Can you please point which morphes can be YB? Or you are talking about the "normals" :D?

Normals are YB

That direct link still doesn't work for me lol.

Do you have a url?

Maybe this will work:

Ok wow, thats very interesting!

My guess is that the sire's mom was a YB. Since she was an import the breeder may not have known. She might have been lower quality. So i'm guessing you have a low expression YB Lesser male.

For the babies:
The first two normals, i would call YB. Maybe they're a different gene in that same complex, but they look exactly like a lot YB's ive seen. The two lessers looks like lesser YB's to me. I wouldn't call them that for sure, but they don't look JUST lesser to me. The kingpins i can't really say bc i don't really have much experience with that morph or pin combos in general. That last male with the busiest pattern does sorta look like theres another gene at play. Idk for sure though. I would breed the sire to a few normals to see what you hatch out!

Very interesting results, be sure to keep us updated!

Thanks Mike for help :). We are deffinitelly keeping both "normals" and 1 female lesser (the second one on the video).
Anyone else got some ideas what is going on :).

Those are all really nice. I'd agree that the "Normals" are YB's. The coloration and belly pattern look like a lot of my YB's. As for the others, if I had to guess, I think there's a possibility in the second lesser. I don't have much experience though with the lesser stuff. I have a couple different pinstripes and the are very different. One is very dark and the other is very light. So the pinstripe YB's you saw online may not give you the answers. You could try breeding an Ivory male to the pinstripe female. That would give you all YB's and if you get an Ivory, that will answer the question for sure.Let us know what you figure out in the future.

the "norms" are YB
and the second lesser i see a little something in.

First off congrats on a SUPER clutch! Also, nice video, well done! I have a lesser yb male and just hatched out two lesser yb clutches, yb combos can be very difficult to identify. IMO, your male is no doubt a lesser yb. Your first two hatchlings are ybs, the pin is a normal pin, the first lesser is questionable but looks lesser yb to me, second lesser is lesser yb, the kingpins I have never hatched out and do not have experience with but they sure all look to have yb potential with the side patterns (I would have to compare to some normal kingpins), but I would say the last one def has the yb gene.

Really nice clutch, again huge congrats and great odds!:gj:

Thanks! We are also really happy that there is a surprise gene in play that we were not expecting :D.
