Oh, before I forget ... there is a good chance that he may actually be a 100% Het VPI Axanthic ... his mom was a 100% het axanthic that was doing absolutely zippy with my axanthic male last breeding season ... November, December, January ... nothing ... then I started running one of my het male axanthics with her and they locked up every time I paired them up ... once her follicles got fairly large I started putting my axanthic male back in and they started finally locking up as well ... The ratio was out of 6 eggs; 4 axanthics and 2 normal looking animals (that I labeled 66% possible hets) ... the ratio of axanthics to normal looking animals and the late copulations with the axanthic male could mean that he was the sire and that the normal looking babies are 100% hets, but without knowing for sure I couldn't label them as anything other than possible hets.

Not sure if that matters much at all, but that's the background on that boy.
