Here is my chocolate mojave who is also borderline for laying this year (older pic though):

Ok question from a newbie....is a "chocolate" a morph? Or is that just a term for a dark female who proves out to carry a "dark gene" and produces "dark offspring"?

I will go take a couple pics of some of my big normal females...a couple of them are MUCH darker than the others....I know they are normal....so I didn't know if the chocolate was actually a morph or just a type of coloring (does that make sense?) Kind of like pastels...there are blonde pastels but they are still just pastels even though their offpsring may be ligher yellow. So normals can be chocolate, but still be normal even though their offspring may be also dark?

Hope that makes sense.....
