I'm sure you know Motleys better than anyone on the planet, which is why I'd like to know what your thoughts are on the off colored scales on the underside of Motleys.. I've got a Motley with a purple patch of scales under his chin, it's about identical to the color of the Purple Patternless Super Motley and I've got friends who own Motleys with darker patches, not purple, but more like the coloring on Linda's Super Motleys.. Do you know if the patches of scale color have anything to do with what color the supers will be?? I've also noticed that for the most part, a Motley will throw laddertails or stripes, is this working seperately or random? I have a striped tail male and ended up with all stripe tail offspring. Any opinions would be hugely appreciated.. Thanks in advance. Joe



Here's a picture of my male's patch of purple, the purple is much deeper in person, the bright lights washed away the color.

(Don't worry, I was gentle!lol)
