While I do think this would be pretty interesting if it does prove out, at this point I feel the experiment has been tainted from the start for the simple fact it has been "contaminated" with the conda gene. Meaning that you are trying to prove a conda by using another conda. Especially being that it is common knowledge, at least to those of us who have work with the gene for years that you can produce condas that look like supers from conda to normal pairings. Which was, as Troy pointed out, the rise of the terms low expression condas and high expression condas. Which was actually coined low or high "key" condas when these "anomalies first started poping out of the egg.

In any case, It is way too soon for anyone to say that "Wonderbread" is or is not a conda based on one clutch from one single pairing.
