Not the degree of intricate speckling and the high number of serrated bands present in that Blair “Juno?” BTW, my first alterna was a Juno Road; a very nice looking sky blue gray male alterna-phase that I picked up as a yearling from Damon one time while we were both in Sanderson in the early-mid nineties (Joe Branham was the breeder). In fact, it looked similar to your wc female. It was paired up with a female that I acquired from Joe Forks. That Juno Road pair produced about seven clutches for me. In addition, I produce somewhere between 70-80 locality offspring per year with my wc East Sanderson and Dryden groups. So, I’m a little familiar with the variability of alterna clutches. That said, my spidey sense has been tingling about that male ever since I got it back from Texas. I have never used it for breeding. The female from the Blair pair (that went egg bound and was put down) was bred to one of my males that descended from the Branham-Forks Junos. Anyway, thanks for responding and congrats on the very nice wc female.
