Thanks, we’re glad that you enjoy them as much as we do and keep up with the website. Everything we have produced with them involved the original red male and normal females (completely normal, no real color to them at all). We assume that once we start breeding these animals into other colorful normals, sunglows, hypos, jungles that the combined effects will result in extremely colorful animals. As for genetics, it seems like all the animals in the litter have splashes of color, there are usually 6-7 in the litter which have extreme color, so just about half. We’ll leave the genetics at that for now, but once we get around to F-2’s next year we should know a little more about its true nature and if it the genes have combinatorial effects. All the animals end up with some color, even the ugly ones. We had a hard time moving this really speckled male, and he didn’t have much color, but by a year and a half he had gone pink/purple with some really good color tones and is now in our permanent collection.
