Just curious about mutations

Hi all,

Occasionally we hear about new recessive morphs surfacing here and there. Mostly exciting stuff.

Since mutations happen randomly and can affect other things besides skin/eye color, I'd assume there's probably a lot of bad qualities that surface as well.

Just wondering what everyone's experience is with mutations (i.e. not husbandry related problems). Have you observed many problems or do these seem to "naturally cull themselves" prior to hatching?
