Wow!,..32 eggs is insane!
It's my understanding that the melanistic form start out looking typical, then undergo their gradual ontogenetic darkening as they mature, much like that of L.t.gaigeae. So many of those orange/yellow hatchlings you saw could have easily been recessive melanistics if they were raised up.
