What ever became of patternless harlies?

Did that fizzle, or what? I expected there to be bunches of patternless harlequins by now. Also, were the parent's of the patternless average looking harlequins?

The first patternless Harlequin was produced by Brendan Magee in 2005 by breeding a male harlequin with great color and a few abberincies. We bought out Brendan's complete patternless project, which was supposed to include the only surviving Patternless harlequin female, the mother of her, and a couple babies. Unfortunately, since, the patternless female has passed and the remaining babies from the patternless breedings.

The only one left from the original project is the mother of the patternless, a pure peruvian, and we are in the process of trying to get her out here. We shall produce some patternless harlequins as well as orange tail hypo patternless harlequins. Just keep an eye out and hopefully come this Nov. some of these beautiful animals will be ready . This is by far our biggest project that we are working on now. Once we make some patternless ourselves, then we will start working them into other morphs.

Good luck Ken with your sterling breedings this year. I would love to talk with you as we are making a complete history of the patternless harlequins since they appeared. Lots of great pics.
