This is mom from my clutch last season - her blackback was genetic - 4 of her offspring had the same back:

this is one of her offspring not the most dazzling blackback - but still nice:

Dave,
The second one pictured is beautiful! It is not only a blackback, but it is also a reduced pattern. Good Luck!

Here he is, the one in the middle...

She produced 6 50% het albinos for me last year that kind of had her pattern under the male's pattern so I wouldn't necessarily consider her genetic. But I'm breeding her to a cinnamon next and plan to breed one of her sons back to her to see if anthing comes from that. At the very least, I'll end up with more cinnys and still have a gorgeous adult female, even if she isn't genetic. I wish all my females could look like this. Something about a great black back is really impressive to me.

toshamc Apr 14, 2006 12:32 PM

She still looks gorgeous Ryan - best of luck with her!
