It may be do to outcrossing. Strengthening the bloodline does wonders from the color and vitality of these animals.
I found out that the applegate morph is compatible with the McGurty line - producing nearly a 50/50 clutch - applegates and McGurty's. I was under the impression that the McGurty's had never been outcrossed with the applegates. I learned a few years ago that was just the case.....

I used a really nice applegate male to sire a McGurty clutch this year. Should be cutting out in a few weeks.

That adult pair you posted is just stunning!!!!! I hope mine hold that kind of color.
