Has anyone ever produced offspring from a super motley x normal pairing? Ive been hearing that they often die very young?And thats why they are often not sold.
also ca motley and colunbian motley ever produced supers?
Thanks in advance Jason

Super motleys usually die young. There are a few that have lived to adulthood but none have successfully bred. They seem to have some real genetic problems. Outcrossing might be a way to strengthen them, but I'm not getting my hopes up. Their heads are strangely shaped, almost sunken in making me wonder if there's some kind of neurological situation as well. Genetic oddities, in any case.
Colombian motley x CA motley produces super motleys as well, yes.

I want to see pics of the Columbian X CA super motley if there is one that has been produced. Never heard of one being produced or proved non-compatible either. A pairing this year of that sort produced two motleys and one normal but no supers.
