Are they normals ? Alot of normal looking balls come from africa every year. That normal looking baby could be the next morph? You will never know unless you put together a dinking project? So you have a normal looking baby you just have a hunch about, You breed it raise the babies and breed it back, only then will you know its true genetics. Im not sugesting buying wild caught , just an observation that needs to be considered. I have a female I bought as an pet from the previous owner that is very light in color, looks carmel. More than likely she was bought in a pet store and was imported. This is a good example of a dinking project. So this will be a 3 -5 year project depending on sex .Breed first year raise babies to adults 18 mons - 3 years breed back to parents and hope like hell the babies are different in color or pattern. So what did you prove........The original animal was normal looking but a het for lets say red stripe ,you bred it to another normal looking animal and produced 50% pos hets for red stripe.You were lucky enough to get one of the hets gravid by the original animal and out popped red stripe balls. So whatcha need normals for? Just something to think about!!!
