Well its been a little over a year, thought it was time for an update! The dark male was sold as a pet, really didn't feel like dinkin with him. The light female ended up going with a butter last year. We are now thinking she may be het super stripe?
2011 she had:

2.1 Butters
2.3 "Normals"

One male butter sadly passed just a few days after hatching. The two males had a "look" to them, or perhaps they were just nice examples of butters, the female looked like a normal butter to us. Most of the normal babies came out looking like mom with similar markers. (orange/yellow sides, keyhole pattern, zipper bellies, flames, and deep black saturation)

We held back the ones that had the look, 1.0 butter & 1.2 Normals. We are hoping the butter may have the gene as well. He was paired with several normal females this year and his first clutch just hatched today 4/29/12.

1.1 butters and 2.1 normals

The thing is, the butters look very nice and the normals have the same characteristics their fathers siblings had. Not sure if its actually reproducing something or passing on mom/dad genes like everything does. We do know the specter (spector)/het super stripe combos don't have alot of pizazz. ie pastel specter, butter specter, ect. They just look a bit prettier until the YB does its magic!

The light female was paired with nothing but a YB this year and she is just going into her pre-lay shed. We will cross our fingers, maybe she will throw some super stripes!

Heres the link to some pics, going to add more later today! Thanks for looking. http://www.faunaclassifieds.com/foru...d.php?t=284581
