I received an e.mail the other day from a gentlemen who I had sold a female het. blonde T.P.R.back in 07. He bred her for the first time this year to a blonde male and got no blondes out of 8 eggs.Understandably he questioned weather the female was an actuall het.At the time I had only a normal male and two blonde females that were breedable.My biggest female blonde never threw a good clutch of eggs the smaller blonde female went gravid and layed 6 eggs which of course all hatched normal looking hets.One of which said gentlemen bought.There could have been no mix up on my end as I have only ever hatched that one clutch of T.P.R.'s
Has anyone ever heard of not hitting a color morph from a het. x visuall?
The breeding pic is in my other post below.I provided him with that pic and also a pic of the blonde female laying eggs.I have no other means of proof.
Any thought on this situation would be greatly appreciated.
