And after a few shot attempts, assuming everything we've documented so far besides this clutch with Deserts is representative of the morph and its problems, those members of the species carrying this gene would die out and it would disappear from the pool. Natural Selection is quite good at taking care of "problems" like infertility. Don't get me wrong, I'll be excited for combo possibilities if we prove Desert females to be viable in some way, but it rubs me the wrong way that anyone is still putting the life of their pet on the line to try to prove it out. Yes, it's your pet to do with as you like, for the most part, but if I put the life of my dogs at risk in a similar manner to make puppies, I'd get investigated and probably shut down by the SPCA or the Humane Association, and rightly so. If this really is it, and for OP's sake I hope it is, then great, but the odds are more like that it's not, or that it's a non-repeatable fluke.
