    Here's a head scratcher!

    Obviously a bit early to know anything for sure as this one is still in it's egg, pictures were taken today. Parents were bought as Visual albino Male and Het albino Female, in fact I picked up 3 het albinos at the same time, all came from/through the same breeder. The male has paired all 3 females this year, and we have had 3 clutches. First 2 clutches all hets, and standard looking het albinos. This clutch there is this one baby and 4 slightly weird looking normal/hets, though they are harder to see at this point as they are all still in the eggs.

    Thoughts anyone? there have been many interesting suggestions made today, and neither male albino or female 'het' look to be anything other than what I bought them as. No sign of pastel, enchi, desert or OD in either of them. Weird huh, I've been scratching my head all day! It's actually brighter than the photographs have come out.

    Here's a head scratcher!

    I might be reaching, but that last one looks clown-ish!

    Both pictures are of the same baby, it's just that you can kind of see it's head in the one and it's belly/sides in the other. And no your not reaching I saw the same thing you did, though to the best of my knowledge there is no way it can be a clown. My first though was orange dream, then I saw what looked clown, but from the parents makes no sense at all! it's very confusing!
