This is a guyana BCC (on the left) and a Suriname BCC (on the right). I'm showing this pic to illustrate the differences you can achieve with selective breeding.

The animal on the left was born to a high red/pink female bred to a aberrant male with good color. The animal on the right was born to a VERY light female with a great tail to a VERY light and pink male. As you can see, the baby on the left is showing that beautiful coloration her mother boasts while the baby on the right is almost white like her mother was as a baby (and still is to a large degree).

Hope you like!

Both of those are very nice lookin!!!! That Guyana is SWEEEEEEET!! If it has this much color now, I can't wait to see it in a year or so!!! Are these your holdbacks??

Thanks! And you're right, it should be great to watch these develop. Unfortunately I won't be the one doing the watching as neither of these are holdbacks. Out of 20 babies produced, I'm only holding on to 2 of them. The tough part is figuring out which 2!
Thanks for the comments! jb
