I have a few questions and I will make them as quick as possible.
This is not just a Sunday quiz, I really need some solid answers please.

Are Sunglow babies normally harder to keep up then normal babies?

Are Sunglow Genes weaker then other non morph genes, like just a Albino or Anery? Does this make them weaker babies?

COULD a Split Litter consisting of Snow and Sunglow produce those morphs - but with a weaker gene then had they been NOT a split litter such as DH Snow x DH Snow only?

Meaning is my Sunglow from the split litter as strong in the genes as just as DH Sunglow x DH Sunglow produced Sunglow?

I guess I should ask this too - do you feel animals that are born FIRST OUT or LAST OUT are weaker then the mid body babies? Do you feel the end babies are more prone to problems Vs Mid Body babies? Can some be DONE while the outsides are still medium rare???

Last - do you think that by me misting my gravid female I could have pushed her into labor a day or two earleir then she wanted?

PLEASE these are questions I really need answers to here so I can find out exactly what is going on here. I will give more info later.

As for our split litter we got something close to this:
1 Snow
2 Sunglows
8 Hypos
9 or so anery and normals


I am asking the above questions because the 17 babies that are NOT The snow or sunglows are ALL over running the cages like all babies should. However we are not having the same results with the 3 we REALLY are pulling for. The Snows and Sunglows.. how can it just be those 3?????
