Once again your topic is my favorite in the whole forum. Rock on!!!!
Thanks. We appreciate the compliments. When 2015 Clutch 5 sheds out and we can get better pictures of them, we will certainly post more pictures and describe each one in more detail. Here is some background on the Paint morph. It is a really subtle incomplete dominate morph. The heterozygous form (Paint) has a real granite like look with smeared/faded alien heads on the neck. Charles Glaspie was the first to import the het morph and the first to produce supers. Ted Williams worked closely with Charles and our Paint stuff came from someone who bought from Ted. There are a couple of genes that may be the same gene, but different lines (Ben Siegle's Sentinel and Jon Courtney's Nazca, among others). The super or homozygous form is really cool. Here are links to some pictures:

Two of the most helpful breeders with the most experience that I have found for help when dealing with this morph are Jon Courtney (http://www.coldbloodedaddiction.com/) and Limey (https://www.facebook.com/RoyalReptilia).

Until the hatchlings finish shedding, you can look at last year's clutches from our Paint stuff:

Hope that helps.
