It did take us a long time to hear about the possible problems with caramels (both high kinking and high slug rates). Although I'm still optimistic that with shared information both problems can be solved. If breeders like Mark and Bill can avoid the kinks and Sean and Brian can get good eggs consistently we just need to figure out what the variables are so we can all reproduce their success and the caramel mutation can move past these issues. Maybe it is outbreeding like most seem to think or some accident of environment or nutrition (my wacko theory) that can overcome these negative tendencies.

Are there other mutations with problems? I don't know. I'm probably being paranoid after the spider and caramel late disclosures. I give people a lot of credit to read the full threads, understand them, and decide for themselves. But I have seen rumors take off before from people apparently not understanding the difference between a question on a possibility and a proven fact. I realize it takes a long time for new morph females to mature and breed in enough numbers to happen for someone who'll bother to post pics so I'll just keep watching for them.
