Thank, Dennis. Yes, it is in good hands. I even have the history on it. Its from the very first Striped Mud Don found as a juvenile. He found an adult a few years later both females. He then collected a normal banded from the same area and bred it to one of the females and two out of the clutch were Striped Mud, so the dad must have been a het. He gave one of those striped muds to Keasler and kept the other. A few years later he gave me the other baby, which was a small adult by then. I got it just in time for breeding season and bred it to a wild caught LB hypermelanistic from the same locale. I held back a male LB hyper het St. Mud and am planning on breeding it back to the mom next year. Shortly after Don gave me this St. Mud, he gave his last two adult wild caught females to Keasler. Keasler had a jump start and has been producing these for the past few years. -----
