Black belly balls

[MS2]

Does anyone have any updated info on black bellies?

Here's a shot of a "black belly"? Or is it something random?

I do not have any experience with black bellies, but from the pictures I have seen it looks like it to me. Is this something that showed up in one of your clutches, if not whats the story on it?

From my experience which is super limited. It looks like the Black Bellies I've seen..

I hatched this girl in 2004 as a 50% possible het pied. I was hoping her black belly was a variant of the het pied belly markers, but she never produced a pied. I still had her when the black bellies came out. What was obviously different to me is the black bellies that were being used to make the neat combo's had a fairly light dorsal pattern and black belly scales. Mine had a noticeably darker appearance to her whole body. She was one of 6 in the clutch and the only dark one. I hatched about 20 babies from her mom, none looked like her; Probably 4 clutches from her dad, none looked like her; And none of her babies looked like her. I decided she was an aberrant normal and sold her as a proven breeder. If one just shows up randomly in a clutch I doubt it is the morph. I never intentionally took a picture of her belly pattern, but part of it can be seen in the pictures below.

The male I bred this year for the first time has the same type belly. Hatched15 babies from 2 clutches. Most have the black bellies in one form or another. The one in the pic is the best example. In the past 2 years the other babies bellies were much cleaner breeding the same females. I quess the only way to tell is to prove them out. Thanks
