Retic breeding question

Jud McClanahan Mar 22, 2005 12:07 AM

I understand what is expected when crossing the different morphs. My question is why did I get one Tiger and all the rest Super Tigers from a breeding of two Super Tigers. Jud

Super x Super gave one tiger? How big was the clutch? Did another male happen to get at the female as well? Had she ever been previously bred?

Last year (maybe two ago), Constrictors Unlimited had a normal pop out from a tiger to a super breeding. I might be a little off on the stats, but I do know that something popped out that shouldn't have.

Any pics of the adults and babies?? I'd love to see some-congrats on the clutch!!

Probably just a weird situation, I have heard of a normal popping up from super to super breedings.

The pair of supers have only been bred to each other twice, 2002 and 2004. The clutch had 35 eggs, 11 infertile which resulted in 23 supers and the tiger. I don't have any pictures of the adults but will take some and do have some of the babies but I'm not sure how to post them on here. I'll figure it out. Thanks Jud
