Unexpected results

I bred a creamsicle with a Rootbeer, there were obviously some hets I didn't know about! These are the first four hatchlings. My Guess is that both were het for stripe and the rootbeer must have been het for Amel... any other Ideas??

It doesn't surprise me that a rootbeer would be het for amel since a lot of them are by products of creating creams (siblings to creams that are normal colored).

It'll be interesting to see the striped rootbeer grow up. Maybe you could also use it to produce some striped cinny's if you could introduce the hypo gene to it. Are there any striped cinny's out there that you've heard of?

striped cinnamons......
I knew someone who was producing them a few years ago but I haven't heard if they survived a hurricane a few years back.
The guy that was breeding them lost a lot of animals in a hurricane and I'm not sure if he lost those.
I haven't been able to get in touch with him in about a year.
