Here's a belly shot...I bought mom as a normal, and I really don't think they are Yellowbellies. The belly doesn't look quite right for that, to me.

That's a yellowbelly for sure.

Comparison shots for you.
This is a baby that I hatched this season. (Yellowbelly)

I got very lucky. I purchased her mom as a proven breeder normal when I bought out a collection sale (and paid a normal price). It took me a while to realize what she might be since I assumed she was just a normal with nice flames and I figured of there was something going on the guy who had her would have mentioned it. But the more I watched this baby grow the more I thought she was way too nice to be a normal. If they are ybs, then I should be hatching fire ybs from mom this season. Thanks for the input!
Very cool.
Yeah, I would bet money on them being yellowbellies...or if not, something in the yellowbelly complex (since new things keep popping up like het pumas, het superstripes etc)

I'm inclined to agree with you...just wanted to make sure I wasn't imagining things. I'm thinking about picking up an Ivory or Pastel Ivory to pair with them. On the off chance they are not YBs, I imagine it would be hard to tell them apart from the YBs in the clutch if I bred them to a YB male, and breeding them to an Ivory or Ivory combo seems like the best solution to that problem. Thanks for your input!
