It was from a het to het breeding. The female was actually an 05!! I got five eggs in the clutch and bam hit a home run with a pair of lavenders 1.1 Carts wells? Yea I'm a freaking mess

This clutch has caused more loss of sleep than anyone will ever know. I still feel all weird, like is this really happening? Do I really have a pair up stairs in my rack???OMG this is nutz

I hear people say lavenders don't have the lavender color as hatchlings but it's more of a contrast thing until they mature. Well all I know is these guys are PURPLE right out the freaking egg!! Nuts I never expected them to be so beautiful, the colors are similar to what some saltwater fish display just very visually stimulating.

No doubt in my mind Lavenders rule!

Thanks for all the comments and support I really appreciate it.

Bye for now it's party time!!!!

Hey Larry,
Wow, I would love to see what that one is going to look like all cleaned up. Even as dirty as it is with all of that Vermiculite sticking to it you can see it is going to be incredible looking. LOL Major congrats.

By the way, I love the show you guys are putting on. I have to finish listening to the Graziani one as soon as I have another free thirty minutes or so. You and BT keep up the great work.

Congrats Larry. That clutch definitely made you worthy of everything you deserve. Now your nerves can take a vacation. Congrats on the odds and ratios. Couldn't have happened to a more deserving guy.
