Anyone working with harlequins?...

If so, have you crossed them with anything else? Found a super? Post pics of any harlequins you are working with, crossed or otherwise.

so I don't have any pics. That and I haven't budgeted in a camera yet. To the best of my knowledge a harlequin is a ball that has a very irregular light brown dorsal stripe with hypoish spots in it and alien heads that more or less blend together making a very broken line down parts of the side. None of the alien heads connect with the stripe and in between is mostly black. The overall affect is melty and stripey. There is one in the classifieds right now that I think is a good representation. It is a mutation that I find interesting so I am hoping those who are working with it want to share.

Looks like it to me but I'd hold off on calling it one just yet. Do you have any belly pics? I think they are supposed to have a clear belly with black lines running down the sides. Not 100% sure on that though.

Snake Evolutions produced a Pastel Harlequin awhile back. (See link below)

I don't see photos of their Harlequin line on their website. I DO recall seeing photos on the classifieds awhile back and their Harlequins DO have a distinct look to them.

The Pastel Harlequin that Snake Evolutions produced seems a nice mesh of the two traits with some cool 'floating' pattern.
