Kind of a long story carried over from my twins thread. I had a female that I just kind of thought was a dark good contrasted female. I bred her a couple years ago and when her babies hatched 5 really stood out looked exactly like her dark (deep orange) and with the spot on the top of her head (even more extreme since babies tend to have better color) and one looked normal. So I thought maybe it was something dominant and I kept most of them around and as they've grown I've kind of thought perhaps she might be a black pastel so I bred one of the sons that looked like mom back to her.

The eggs pipped and I got twins in one but I can see at least one of the babies looks like mom, two of the babies look like the girl below so it would appear that it was some sort of co-dom trait and this is a super form but I just didn't know if anybody recognized what it was or not.

So short version, I'm not really sure what they are but in this clutch I can see normals, co-doms, and supers.

Pics of "super" with a normal - none of the co-dom forms are out of the egg yet
