Re: Dinker 2500 gr female looks purplish red hues with some gray and chocolate any th
Well I got a clutch from her paired to a bel and all came out looking great 1 in particular has the alphabet shaped patterns on her. Not sure if it's genetic still lol
She's really unique looking. I'd love to see how that looks with YB or Enchi. Looks similar to black-back complex stuff but I'm not familiar with any that look quite like that. Some Huffman look a little similar.
With anything genetic you honestly need a bit more of a test group than just one breeding. It's a shame this dinker is a female because that makes it harder to say. And hatching a female with the similar looks is just unlucky and puts testing back a bit longer.
There definitely does seem to be something going on because of how the pattern does appear similar to the original dinker...but that can be a fluke of polygenics and not an actual mutation causing it.
Your new girl looks beautiful. I would try to avoid mixing too many genes in until you can see how genetic it is. Possibly breed mom or this girl to a normal to see if there's anything there as well.
You would need to holdback this hatchling and see what happens. If there's a male in the clutch with something a bit different going on, I would try holding it back as well and try breeding back to the mom. It could be a low expression.
