Very nice looking corns there Jorge!

Looks like the male in the first pic, and female in the last...correct?

Yup! The males seem to look better than the females so far, but that's the only female from that year, of that type.

That's pretty interesting about the sexual dimorphism so far. I noticed the differences in their tail thickness was the only reason I knew which one was male and female there..LOL!

Man, you have a good eye! Artists pay very close attention to detail! That's why I didn't continue my drawing skills, lol.

I do hope to hopefully get some females that look like that male.

I hear ya man!..LOL!

Yeah, That would be real nice to get some more females that look like he does, then hope for more as you selectively line-breed for it.

Both are very nice, but I particularly like the complete lack of black in the first one!

Thanks Carl! I'm really excited about these guys. Each generation gets better. I can imagine what these guys will look like with other genes mixed in? Like sunkissed, and Lava, or maybe Strawberry? I will keep a pure line also. Check out the belly of that male. These are not hypos either.
