You would think, but she just adds to the confusion. The male is actually the one from the original Evans blonde bloodline. He is a 2004 offspring sired by the original blonde. The female is unrelated as far as I know. So either the blonde gene is dominant and the male is just a low key animal, or the female is a different dominant line all together and the male is just normal. Or its recessive and the female just happened to be het as well. Who knows!! I'll just have to figure it out.
Here is a pic of the original blonde. There are allot of similarities between him and my female, but some differences as well. The dorsals look pretty close, but his sides are completely patternless. Mine is lost a bunch of pattern since she was born, but it seems only the faded blotches disappear. That means she should keep quite a bit of her side pattern. Also, she has a cool pinstripe down both sides right above her belly scales. I cant see that in Evan's blonde.
