Terry,

Last year I bred an Albino male to an Albino female (mother of your double Hets.) and ended up with 6 female Albinos. That was a first then real recently we had another first. We bred a Mojave male to a Normal female and got 3.3 all Mojaves. Sure wish the odds were that good all the time.

odds usually aren't that good to me...once in awhile...not always...for example...since I posted...2 eggs with heads out...YB wild X YB wild....2 heads...normal and a YB I think....normal....I can do that with one YB not 2...LOL...

......pray for 2 white heads....!!!LOL...

...(will they be females? HA!!!)....

....Good Luck to all........

Thanks Terry. I really missed on the next clutch though, got 6 normals and two Butters. It is kind of wierd too though, all 6 of the normals are boys and the two Butters are girls.

Happy 4th
Darin

....all I have to say is make sure....balls when popped right away can fool you one way and the other....I know I know...you know...you are good at popping, but stuff happens...I just sold a female amel ball at the last show ,an 09....few hours later the ealer came back and says it's male...money returned...popped again....hhhmmm...it had SMALL red things that almost looked like penes...it also had female scent glands clearly sticking up....?...asked 2 other dealers beside me...what's this look like...fully popped...they both said...female....sold it in 5 minutes ...price was CHEAP so it doesn't really matter....but it shows some balls are weird....don't know why it had the red things...small....real small....

so anyways....check again...but then ...YES they can all be males...I have had 9 males from 9 and 9 males from 10 egg clutches....it sucks.....!!!

..good luck...
