Thanks guys, there are some that felt this was just one of those unexplained things that happens in nature. And there are those that felt there could be something going on with the parents that deserves more looking into. With every opinion, everyone agreed that I should hold back as many babies as possible and try and prove the genes out down the road.
I am pairing the parents again this season to see if anything comes from a 2nd litter in the form of T Positive or two. I also held back 2.2 Hypo Pastels and 2.3 Pastel siblings along with the T Positive female from that litter.
I'm no genetics wizard by no means so if I make a mistake here, someone a lot smarter please correct me.
My 1st trial is the pairing of the parents again this season.
Next year, if possible, I may pair up one of the sons (Hypo Pastel) to the mother, see what comes from that.
In about 3yrs, I'll be pairing up the father (Hypo DH Ghost) X daughter (T Positive 50% Het Anery). Along with the siblings Hypo Pastels X Hypo Pastels and Hypo Pastels X Pastels. I'm not much for inbreeding, but feel it's needed and justified here in order to see where this goes.
I'm at the very least hoping for some Hypos & Normals all het T Positives from the father X daughter breeding. Plus if she does prove out to be Het Anery, I should get some Ghosts & Aneries Het T Positives in the mix as well. Not to mention the Hypos Het T Positive Possible Het Aneries, could make T Positive Sunglows.
Maybe someone better at this should review my guesstimates?
Thanks guys!
