I guess I just ran in different circles cause I have heard kinks are from inbreeding as far back as I can remember. Like I told Jeff My first inclination was temps. Yet since I had many other eggs incubating in Identical conditions even in the same box. Then that ruled out temps for me. After 3 years of trying to get some good babies from this guy, cause he is very pretty, I have to conclude it's in his genes. This year will be very interesting cause I took a female offspring from that male with a WC Yellow and bred her to yet another WC male completely different all together. So this will be a good test. I realize getting people to admit they have kinked animals is not going to be easy. I am very honest and open, and I would never try to sell anyone an animal that will have any adverse conditions. I don't mind the experiments, it's what to do with the babies that are malformed, you know? I don't enjoy that part!

This is the afflicted male.
