I decided to test breed my ghost male who was 50% poss het amel to a tangerine amel. I had 8 eggs but a lot of problems with the clutch. Carrion flies got in and destroyed most of the eggs. The entire clutch went bad except for 1 egg, which I decided the night before to switch to a new container and cut the bad eggs off. The next morning I about fainted.

Apparently mom was het anery (line she was from usually has this associated with it) and daddy ghost is het amel.

1 egg = snow 100% het hypo

Dad has all kinds of aberrancies associated with his lineage. All babies he has fathered so far (for me) have at least 1 triad that isn't normal or splotched patterned.

Odds looking better for the next week....stay tuned!!!

thanks
