>>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.

If you look below you will see my response, to him, on the situation.
One clutch of eight eggs (eight good eggs by the way....I wonder how many slugs there were) you would think you would get at least one or two blondes but things happen...I just don't think he has enough evidence to suspect anything other then bad luck.
If you bred a normal to a blonde then they would/should all be normal het blonde. So, you didn't do anything wrong selling them as het blonde.
I think he just needs to fatten her up, breed her again and see what happens.
