Holdback Northern

While waiting for this year's crop to hatch, thought I'd post a pic of a Northern we kept last year. This is one of the lightest ones we've ever hatched.

Both parents are pretty light - male has some red. I don't think I have pics handy of each of them - maybe one of the female. I will look...

not a great pic(I think it's from soon after she layed last year, actually), but it gives you an idea. The male actually has less black, but not as white.

Well, my friend, that is awesome! Very cool also about the black on the head contrasting with the bright white on the body. I may be looking for a northern like that, one with a lot of black on its head, in Daytona.

Thank you for posting that pic!
