What do you see, and why do you see it?
I recently purchased a hatchling. Originally I was looking for something that would pair with my male, if I ever decided to breed it... which wasn't likely. However, I absolutely fell in love with the one I got, who will NOT pair with my male at all, since they both have Spider and I'm not willing to risk hitting the Super.
The breeder listed her as:
Pastel, Mojave, Super Enchi, Spider, Poss. Banana.
The sire is:
Banana, Bongo, Enchi, Lesser, Pastel. (Male-maker Banana who has previously thrown female Bananas)
The dam is:
Mojave, Enchi, Spider.
I used the flashlight trick and assume that I confirmed that she has Banana, since her entire eye glowed, using my Banana male and non-Banana female adults for comparison.
Now, I can see Super Enchi in the cleanliness and minimization of the Spider pattern. I can see Pastel in the increased orange flush along the sides of her back. I lack the experience to be absolutely certain on any of those! One person has said that they thought she was more likely Lesser than Mojave. Personally, I don't even know where to start looking for either of those genes in her, particularly if she does have Banana!
So, for anyone who wants; What do YOU see in her, and why do you see it? What makes you think that she does have a particular gene, or doesn't? Thank you in advance to anyone who answers. Learning is good!
This image shows her side patterns fairly well. There's not much to see, but I could try to take a direct side picture if wanted.

Clear image of the headstamp. I particularly like the evil smiley face. It's in direct contrast to her temperament, which is amazingly sweet and mellow.

This is a horrible picture. I know that. It's the only shot of her belly I've managed to get so far, and honestly, there's nothing there to see. It's entirely clean and pink/white translucent.
