    Fire dinker..?
    Got this little guy today, someone I know who is very much into his breeding and morphs would put money on him being fire. I can't say i'm too bothered because I'm smitten with him regardless! What do you guys think? Thanks :)

    Head stamp, pattern/flames on the sides and the clear belly.

    Het Hypo should not affect the looks. Post some pics.

    It's a combination of things but generally head stamp, clear belly, blushing/flames and light speckling on their lower sides. I'll toss up some pictures of different looking fires so you can compare. Group shots will have at least 1 normal to make it easier for you:

    These are very young examples(1st or 2nd shed) but you should still be able to pickout the fires from normals. With every shed the separation becomes more apparent.
    **Hint: there are 2 normals**

    Same animals, minus one, with a bit more size/separation
    **Hint: only 1 normal**

    Lastly, here's one with a similar look to the poster's fire:

    Looks like a regular fire to me, just reduced pattern and banded.

    Fire is a color mutation, the pattern(s) are inherited elsewhere.

    Fires vary in quality just like Pastels and other morphs. You (steve_r34) have a clean fire :gj:
