So how did this happen?

[S.Gilbert]

Where did you get your female from? The only explanation I can think of is she is actually a het and you missed the odds last year.

She was purchased in a lot of 20 CBB females from Edensnakes. They were all supposed to be siblings to their CoDom breedings.

it would definitely be awesome if she was in fact het for g-stripe tho

[katieLPN]

so sorry for your loss.

Obviously a perfect G-Stripe fully formed dead in the egg. Besides being bummed at losing what looked like a very nice animal, how did I get a Homozygous G-Stripe?
I'ver heard of Parthenogenisis, but wouldn't that only happen if the FEMALE was the Homozygous Morph?

Very sorry the baby didn't make it I tend to agree with Egapal, though, in hypothesizing that there may have been a chromosomal defect that caused this. If the baby only got one copy of a certain chromosome (obviously the dad's copy), it would be lacking the normal, functional protein from mom that would give it a normal appearance, so it looks like a homozygous genetic stripe even though it only has one copy of the "stripe" gene.

Unfortunately, it looks as though that missing chromosome also prevented it from completing development sufficiently to emerge from the egg

She was probably a Possible Het that someone threw in to make an even 20 lot.

I don't think that she was a Poss. Het that someone "threw in", but maybe the breeder I got her from bred a Pastel or Spider or some other CoDom to a CH import that they didn't have any idea was a Het. G-Stripe (prob. still don't know to this day) so all of THOSE babies were Poss. Het. G-Stripes without the original breeder knowing it. At least that is what I'm hoping- that I just missed on all the babies last year, and I got a really cheap Het G-Stripe female....

Try again when she's ready. If you produce a g-stripe then you have a het. If not, you had a freak genetic occurrence.

Aw, that sucks, poor baby
