Pastel YB GStripe Clutch - Crazy Odds!

jluman Jul 23, 2011 11:35 PM

I just crushed the odds on an 8 egg clutch from a het genetic stripe female bred by a pastel yellowbelly genetic stripe male!

2.1 pastel yellowbelly genetic stripes
2.0 pastel genetic stripes
0.1 yellowbelly genetic stripe
1.0 genetic stripe
0.1 pastel het genetic stripe

I can't believe that 7 out of 8 hatchlings are genetic stripes or better!

Also, the female that laid this clutch started out as a 50% possible het that I proved out in 2009. In her first clutch she produced 4 genetic stripes out of 5 eggs. Now she's laid 13 eggs total and produced 11 genetic stripes!

Whole clutch:
