    Clutch with unknown father

    So i adquired an adult bumblebee female on may, and 2 months ago she laid a clutch of 5 and a slug. Maybe she kept sperm from a previous pairing, but i dont know who the father is, and the previous owner said she was maybe paired with a clown dad, clown or not these have multiple genes, any idea what they are?
    All of their bellies are plain with no markings

    No. 1 seems to me like Super pastel spider, maybe banana too? Its a female

    No.2 i have no idea at all what he has, male.

    No. 3 just a Bumblebee female

    No. 4 Super pastel spider enchi, maybe banana again? Male

    No. 5 a very pretty normal, no belly photos but its not a yb. Will add one asap

    Enchi is looking great in these guys.

    I don't know what it could be offhand.... But that 'bumblebee' looks like it has some sort of darker gene in there as well. The head is still so dark and I feel like overall the snake isn't as bright. It can also explain the 'nice normal' the Banana looks like maybe whatever that gene is may be at play as well?

    I agree on the spider bananas. For a 100% ID, take a mag light and hold it to the forehead of the snake like you're candling an egg. For a BEL morph, the pupils will shine red. For banana or coral glow, the entire eyeball will shine red.

    Gorgeous surprise regardless! I wish I could be more help.

    What a great & diverse-looking bunch! Very pretty. Sorry I can't help you with the genetics though, btw.

    Thank you both for the replies. Very generous surprise indeed!
