Very interesting observation albeit purely anecdotal. Never the less, it seems likely that the degree and consistency of incubation temps might well have manifold effects on development including color development, pattern development, physiology, reproductive fitness, immunology etc. as well as general behavior. This study only suggests the possibilities. Wonder what we'll all know 10 years from now?
