Gravid BRBs

Jeff Clark Aug 17, 2008 09:59 PM

First PIC is Caat99F3. Born here in 1999. She is a big girl and odd colored and carrying a very large litter. I hope to get the first litter out of her this year (finally). She may or may not be a genetic mutation. Two sibling females here are both normal colored (see last PIC)).

Next two PICs are Caat99F3 with the top off the box showing her in the box with Borba an older gravid female. Borba has laid large litters in the past but this year seems to be carrying a smaller litter. This PIC accurately shows how different CAAT99F3's color is.

This next one is Jari. She was imported in 1992 with a large wound on her face that has left a scar. She has had medium size litters the last two years and seems to be gravid again this year.

This next one is 04F36. Born here in 2004. This is her first year gravid. Rather than hide in the nest box she is under it getting closer to the flexwatt under the cage floor. There is a tail of another BRB in the foregraound of the PIC.

This next one is another gravid female hiding under the nest box rather than in it. She is Caat99F1 a sibling of the odd colored female above.

Nice pictures, looks like you'll have a ton of babies soon!

Do you think that odd one could be Hypoerythristic? I've seen Hypo-E Sinaloan Milks before that kind of has that same muted red coloration.

Aubrey,
...I have seen those differently colored Sinaloans and some Hondurans also. Intestingly some of the hypo Hondurans are much more of a colorful soft pink orange color rather than this faded looking "hypo" color.

Congrats Jeff!!

CAAT99F3's color is the exact color that the male you sold me turned into. Exact actualy.

Female is still the same as when I got her, beautiful red and orange. Male is kewl also and they both fed like little machines!!

Nice! The light colored ones are neat looking. Borba's little daughter has her color. Very pretty.
