I produced a litter ot babies from a male 100% het blood to a 66% het blood last July 4th. In total there were 14 babies. I sold a couple and kept back the nicest.
In the last few months, one of the nicer animals has started to really color up red. Totally different to the others. What is you take on this animal?

and his siblings that I have hold back

I'd bet money that it's a Het. I could be the Blood thing just bleeding through. Just giving a little hint of what lies beneath.

Hi Warren,

Ditto ... I agree with both Jeff and Bill, it looks like a nice het Blood to me.

BTW, some nice striping showing on some of those guys ... I'm sure many of the Bloods are also genetic for stripes as well. Look at the one below. So you might have some regular genetic stripes as well as het for Blood genetic stripes.

cheers, John
