I have six eggs and all six look good. I have 5 tri-color hypos and maybe one Tang Hypo. Only the one, shown below, has emerged after 81 days.

This tri-color hypo is really light...I put it with the "extreme" tri-color that I got from Terry M. (from Terry’s Xtremes) just to show how light it is. I'm so excited!

I had high expectations for this clutch because the Female Tri-color that produced this clutch is het Amel and 50% het Anery. I took a gamble and put her with two different males; my tri-color Hypo het Amel and my Ghost.

The hope was if I produced a visual Amel...it's would have been a Hybino poss het Anery...and if I would've produced a Ghost it would have been 50% het Amel... unfortunately, neither of those possibilities paned out.

All I can say about these neonates is they are 50% het Amel...and possibly het Anery...but either way they look great so far.

Now, let's see if these tri-colors hold the light hypo color or if it darkens up after the first shed...only time will tell.

Hope you all enjoy my last clutch...I'll post some more pictures later in the week.

Hey Rusty,
Nice Job! I'd like to see the whole clutch together. Not a bad way to end the hatching season...........

I'll have a picture (or three) of the entire clutch...once they all hatch...

I checked them again a few mins ago...and it looks like I have 4 Tri-colors an Intermediate (AKA Peach) and a Tangerine...I can't wait for them to come out.

I'll be in contact with you very soon Scott...

Pictured below is the female tri-color hypo when I first got her from Terry Dunham.

Thanks,
Rusty
