These guys have me chomping at the bit I have to tell you. They are nothing like what I would have thought or expected, but to say confidently what they are....can't do it.
The little one with the kink... time will tell. I have one from a pied clutch last year, and he's train wreck. I've never seen one so kinked and knotted and twisted. Logic tells me I should have put him down right after he hatched, but darn it all he fights so hard. He eats and poos and sheds and grows and moves around, albeit nothing at all like a normal ball, so how do I say he should die when he so clearly wants to live?
I admit, my heart pulls me both ways with this boy. It's painful to watch him, he's so clearly handicapped in the worst way. But darn it all he fights so hard, he has learned new ways to strike, coil, eat and move, even though his body won't obey him. I just can't bring myself to put him down.
Your little bit, it may get better on it's own, it may not. Only time will tell. If he does get better, then there shouldn't be a problem. if he doesn't..... well it's up to the baby if he or she can learn to cope like my boy did.

Thanks Gale! The one with a kink really isn't bad at all. She's moving around fine and I don't think it should cause any issues with eating. Breeding shouldn't be a problem either because it's up too far. All the other babies I've hatched from her before had no kinks or issues so I doubt it's genetic. It would be nice if the kink wasn't there but I guess it is what it is and she's really gorgeous either way.

To my VERY untrained eye...the mother looks pretty darn normal...
It could just be the light but she does look bright! All the alien heads that faced the camera on the outer coil of her body are lacking eyes, but you can see plenty of regular looking alien heads elsewhere on her though...her pattern seems less irregular than most normals I think...atleast in that pic...
I can defiantly see the hoof print head stamp! VERY COOL!
The father on the other hand doesn't look like a normal wild type to me! Not at all!
No alien heads, they're mostly detached donuts, he's got really obvious blushing really high up his body, but they don't appear as flames much on him, I love how the blushing around the dounuts looks like shadows being cast up his body! And his color and pattern are both quite reduced!
I don't see his hoof head stamp...
Its really hard to for me to comment on the baby you think is bright, Id need to see them next to normals to tell any difference I think...
The babies your referring to as faded...those are awesome!
Especially is the update pic! They look very grey scale!
I see whites and shades of grey, pushing black! Especially on one of them, the other seems to have some orange/yellow/brown to the pattern, but obviously very similar to one another!
Do keep us posted! It'll be interesting to see what you end up with after a couple of sheds

The father is a Mojave and not related to any of the mother or the baby of hers from last year. That's why he looks nothing like them and doesn't have the same hoof print. However, there were no mojaves in this clutch even though he was the father. None of the babies look like he does.

Ah! I guess I missed that part... In no good at IDing morphs yet...
Im quite taken with the grey babies! Id say your on to something but what do I know...
Im 6th generation stock farmer...that hoof print head stamp kind of has some special meaning to me...if not for hoofed animals I'm not sure where I'd be...but that goes for all of us, huh?
