Post shed pics

Here are some pictures of the clutch that hatched a week or two ago. These were taken under my light tent. Thanks to all who helped in the discussion of the clutch.

Just a pretty face!

Sunglow and albino. The sunglow is in the foreground the albino in the back. This picture isn't very good for showing the purple rimming on the sunglows saddles. She is also a different shade of red/orange than the regular albino. Lloyd's pic shows it better.

Friendly hypos!

Same hypos before becoming so "friendly"!

Confirmed to be Trumbower line hypo whiteside, aka a ghost. HOLDBACK!!!

Trumbower line whiteside. The molting on the head of this guy is awesome!

And the Trumbowers together.

For comparison, here is one of the normal multi hets.

And finally, this is my other hold back. I cannot capture the true color of these. 3 hatched in this clutch and are a lot more yellow than any of the clutchmates. They also appear to be a bit on the hypo side....genetic??? Well, thats why this one is a holdback! If so....can you say hypo banana bull!

My next clutch is from my Stillwater looking (not calling her a true local....she is an outcross) female bred to the same male that produced this clutch. Due to hatch ANY DAY!!

And I'll re-post my half of the clutch, as it got buried a bit in the other thread.

Pleasure doing the loan with you Lucas......

Remove any doubt about hypo expression in this clutch! (MHO) thanks for the eye candy guys!!! No need to "defend" the genetics of those little screamers. Good luck with the next batch Lucas!!!

Now I'm full on with you. Hypos and a ghost. Those pics definitely tell the tale.

Great clutch, Lucas. Congrats!

Awesome bulls my friend! I knew those hypos would lighten up after their first shed. I love that snake in the first pic!!

Congrats!

Hi Lucas

Yes better pics do tell the truth. I can clearly see Hypos, Hypo Whitesided and Sunglows. Nice pics of beautiful animals. Thanks for sharing.
