    Some Interesting Normals - Not a 'what is this?' thread

    Hey All

    I picked up a few Normals today to bulk up my collection. 1.3 Normals is what I came away with from a choice of 2.10 available from the supplier.

    Now I checked over each one that was available and wanted to show you 1.1 that caught my eye.

    Now I bought these as normals but chose these two due to interesting patterns, the other 0.2 I picked up are typical normal looking and I chose those cause they were bigger than the rest, which to me indicated they are feeding positively.

    Here are the 1.1 I picked up.

    First is the female, she had a unique looking pattern on her body. She has masses of alien heads as well as random spots and spot/broken circles patterns on her back. Her pattern is much more busy than any other ball I have.





    Now this is the male. I originally only wanted to get some females for my collection but when I saw this fella I found 4 interesting pattern points that justified purchasing him.

    He has some granite like patterning in on the sides of his body

    He has a nice high white lining that runs around the edges of his alien heads

    Some of his patterning reminds me of the standalone alien heads that my Cinnamon male has

    He has an interesting pattern on the end of his nose that reminds me of spider/spotnose influences....







    Now as the title of this thread indicates, I ain't asking 'Is this a morph', cause I know most of the answers will come back as 'nice normals'

    I just wanted to share these two with you and explain why I picked them out. I think I will definitely keep hold of the male as a dinker in the future, I first wanna see how he matures... the same goes for the female....

    Some very nice normals there! They should grow up to be real lookers.
    I like the female's busy pattern,also her colours look a lot brighter than the male.. Great stuff!

    Thanks for the comments guys

    Dr Del, I'll get a belly pic and post it up tomorrow..... What I can tell you is that the belly is not clean, it is actually quite busy with parallel diagonal striping running down across the belly and then it has solid black side lines down towards where the vent is...

    @Groovy, welkom.... good to see another Saffa here in BP.net....

    that male has a very interesting head. I would also pair a Mojave with the female, I think that would make a killer pattern.

    Come here little guy. You're awfully cute and fluffy but unfortunately for you, you're made of meat

    Nice choices, the female looks great, a Pastel bred into her might be stunning.
