A Silver Bullet Clutch
I knew late in the 2007 Breeding Season that I would still be getting two more clutches. I was very excited by this because they were both from a Graziani line Pewter Male bred to a Graziani line Cinnamon Female. The clutch’s came about a Month apart. I was really hoping to produce either a Super Cinnamon or if I was really lucky a Silver Bullet. The first clutch hatched in February and I missed on both. It was a nice clutch with two Pastels, three Cinnamons, a very nice Pewter, but no Super Cinnamons or Silver Bullets. Oh Well. The next clutch started to pip on 3/30/08. After I cut the eggs that had pipped and also the other ones I was rewarded with this incredible site.

The one on the very far left is a Silver Bullet (A Pastel Super Cinnamon).
Here are a few more pictures of it still in the egg.

Looking at this incredible animal was exciting on many levels but the most exciting was the fact it appeared to have a perfect nose. Most of the Super Black Pastels, Super Cinnamons, and Silver Bullets have had problems with their noses or problems with kinking. Sometimes both. It looked like the nose on this one was fine with no Duckbill Platypus protrusion. I didn’t know if it had any kinks but so far looking at it in the egg it looked good.
A day later it emerged from the egg and after cleaning him up a bit (yes he is a little boy :gj:), I took these pictures.

The last picture is of him and one of the Pewter’s that hatched in the clutch so you could see a comparison. As you can clearly see he is perfect in every way with no kinking or any nose problems. I say chalk up a few more points for the Graziani line of Cinnamons. Oh Yea!
Here is a group picture of all of the Morphs that hatched in the clutch.

Here are a couple of pictures of the two Cinnamons.

Just so you can see the parents of these incredible animals here is a picture of one of the breeding's that produced the clutch.

I will try to update with some new photos a little later on after he has shed but for now I hope you enjoy the pictures.
Thanks for looking,

I have no idea what he would sell for. As far as I know there hasn’t been any for sale so far. I am not going to have to find out though because he is not going anywhere. http://www.albeysreptiles.com/images...ile_tongue.gif
