Couple more of my newly hatched reduced

JP Jun 26, 2007 01:16 PM

I won't bore you all with too many pictures, but I know a couple of you would like to see these guys. All 7 have left their eggs and are set up in the baby rack. They all look about the same. As I said before, it appears this look, subtle though it may be, appears to be simple recessive in the animals I have here. Here are two decent photos. Enjoy the pics!

P.S. I still have not managed to see an egg tooth in a BP. They must drop them almost instantaneously after slitting the egg....

They're beautiful! I love the reduced pattern in balls. Are you going to try working in the reduced pattern to some of your other morphs? Does the reduced pattern work with pastels or does the pastel gene funkify the pattern?

Thanks for posting for us to see! :D

I definitely want to work this trait into other morphs. Unfortunately, I sorta lack the patience. I do know that somebody (Stan Ruppel, I think?) was working with a really nice line of reduced pastels, and Mike Jolliff has some reduced pattern axanthics, although I'm not sure they are quite as reduced as mine (they may very well be, I've only seen a couple).

I think they would make a stunning albino...maybe a more yellow version of the spider albino. Who knows how it would interect with other morphs?

I hope to trade some of these guys this year...
