fresh little mandarins

I found these little sichuan province mandarins hatched out this afternoon. 61 days at 75 degrees. I wish everything hatched out that quick at those temps.

NICE. Now these Sichuans, do they have the red lines within the grey scales? I had mandarina mid-90's which had the red infused, but I really like the light grey with no red infusion. What do your sire/dam look like? Most seem to have the red, but I've been looking for ones without. Mind sharing??

Either way, the babies look great.

Most of the sichuans do have a lot of red. Here is a shot of one of the adults.
I get a hatchling or two each year with little to no red but in general if you like no red I probably wouldn't go with sichuan province mandarins.

Congratulations Randy, very nice. Mine are almost due but they've been at 80F so I hoping for some pipping after 40 days.
