Re: Specter VS. Normal
Oh Sorry. The one on the right is the Specter.
Like some of the other subtle morphs the only way for sure way you can know if a normal you have in your collection is a gene carrier is to breed it and see.
The big question I asked myself when I got a specter male was if I was going to be able to tell the specters from the normals. And atleast to me in person comparing two animals like the two above it seems doable
Thanks for looking!

Re: Specter VS. Normal
Yea Specter is a very hard morph to pick up on if you don't know what your looking for. I found a post on another forums one day that help a ton. Someone did a step by step hunters guide now I have no problem. It without a doubt the one on the right.

Re: Specter VS. Normal
I was talking to Ben Siegel this weekend, and he said that it's very hard for some people to tell the difference, and unfortunately - a lot of animals sold as specters are not proving out because of that. He used the Specter as an example during our discussion at the Repticon show.
We were actually discussing his het Sentinels and what was it that someone saw about them to go "I think I'll pair them up and see what I get", because let me tell you - there's nothing distinctive about them to me - and Ben even said - he wouldn't want to sell one as a het unless it came from a visible.
That's how we moved to discussing specter/whirlwinds and how difficult they are to tell as well.
If you put that light baby in with a bunch of other light babies - I don't see anything in particular that would distinguish it from them, unless there's something subtle that we're not seeing in the picture.

Robin,..The reason i had put two "Paints" together is that they were obvious to me..Which is just one of the reasons we can't say that the Paint and the Sentinel are exactly the same.
On another note..How many years did Amir know exactly what a yellowbelly was,while countless numbers of folks still had trouble with it?

I understand that - which is why I'm asking what other things I'm not seeing on the Specter that make it a Specter. If that animal was grouped with other similarly colored normals - what distinguishing features would allow someone who is trying to pick the Specter out able to do so?
