Well another breeding season is here and like every year of late you guys can count on me for one thing no matter what! To have absolutely no idea what I am going to produce. I breed multiple different visual males to my girls each season and never know what is going to come out of the eggs. I keep hearing from brian Potter and Marc Bailey how many clutches you can get fathered by two dads and yet each year I breed several different genes to my girls and never hit those cool double dippers.

I keep thinking how cool it would be to get lemon blasts and bumble bees from one female pastel (Sorry, I don't have a triple to breed to her). So here we go, pictured is a female pied being bred by a mojave and a male pin up in the batters box. The pin was slow to breed so I gave him some competition. So far this year that pied female has been bred by pin, spider, mojave and yellow belly. I will be happy with anything I get from her. Evan

Maury Povich is the guy who finds out, Who is the Daddy?

Is it usually the first male that is the father. Keep us posted.

According to Barker's book, it is usually the first male that sires the clutch. I have had cinny, spider and pewters from a pastel female. I would have liked to get a bee from that clutch.

Good luck with that breeding Evan. I thought about breeding the mojave to the pied het I got from you. I wonder if the end result would look like the lesser pied. Good luck this season.

Hey Thomas. I want to make combo pied morphs down the road like a pastel mojave pied or pinstripe pastel pied. You are way ahead of me though, I still have never produced a pied.

I think next season I will try for Cinnies het pied. So many cool pied crosses can be made with the cinny.
I hope the pied pinstripe looks beter than the spider pied.

Way to keep it exciting, Evan! Most of my projects are unproven or possible hets so I'm not able to mix things up much, but I've put the Pastel male on anything I didn't get a confirmed lock on from the younger Yellow Belly male. Can't wait to see what you produce.
