I just have never seen anything like this. Actually I hope it stays that way or develops into something unique. Thanks for the post.

Cool let me know when you hatch out some Blizzards!

I didnt' breed my own group yet. I'm waiting on eggs that my female Flame has been laying. She was bred before i bought her. None of the eggs have hatched and i'm very upset about it. She just laid anothe clutch last week so hopefully.......hopefully they will hatch. When the next breeding season comes i'll be breeding my group and i can't wait

I'll let you know when my blizzards hatch for sure
