We are having a lot more animals hatching. Some are also eating now as well. Above are pictures of one of my dinking projects, currently called Charcoals. There seems to be something different about them, but not sure it's genetics will prove out to be valuable in the future. Interesting, but not as "clear cut" as I had hoped.
We have Pastels that hatched - 4 Pastels and 3 Normals. It looks like 1 male and 3 females for the Pastels. We had two more Spider x Normal clutches, but believe it or not, we didn't hit on ANY Spiders for those two clutches - blah! We were very excited about the 7 we hatched in that first clutch - not only because of the number of them, but also their quality! See below for a few examples of the outstanding animals we produced this year:
As for the Orange Granite clutch... it unfortunately doesn't appear to be genetic - blah! They so far appear to be quite normal, even though their parents had a very interesting orange look to them. I had expected the possibility that the Granite part may not be genetic, but was hoping at least the orange color would come out. They haven't shed yet, so maybe they will brighten up - but I'm not holding my breath on that one! See a few pictures below:
So we still have 4 clutches to go... we did end up loosing a couple of eggs this year, but so far, we've been getting great results over all!
