No reason for the attitude about it. I was just trying to figure out your way of thinking. This isn't the first time you've hatched something that you thought it was something else although there is no need for me to bring up old threads as I wasn't attacking you at all. Sorry if you took it that way...I have no problem with dinking and trying to prove things out but one clutch doesn't mean that something is genetic without a shadow of a doubt. Again...you're getting ahead of yourself. I'm not saying that the female is genetic or just a normal...she could be genetic or you just got a clutch of some black backs. Just because you got one clutch of some black backs really means nothing but the female is "possibly" genetic. I've had clutches of black backs and clutches of striped stuff from opposite looking adults. You can be mad about what I say all day long but it doesn't change the fact that you obviously get ahead of yourself. The excitement of hatching babies is always great but you need to know what you have before you start posting everywhere that you have something new or "accidentally" produced something higher end than what you did. It makes you look like you don't know what you're talking about. Have a great day![]()
