Hidden Gene Woma Granite Yellow Belly Clutch

Well the HGW Granite Yellow Belly clutch hatched 8/29/12 and even though it is a good one I can't help being a little disappointed I didn't hit the HGW Superstripe. I bred her the first time to a Pastel Lesser, the next two times to a Superstripe, and many times to a Pastel Superstripe. It looks like the regular Superstripe got the job done. I wasn't sure what all I had hatched out at first so I sent the pictures to Matt Lerer who I obtained my HGW from and he in turn sent them to his good friend Kevin from NERD. Kevin confirmed the results on this page but I still need to find out if he has hatched out any HGW Ivories, and if so what they look like.

First one out is a Superstripe.

Second one out is another Superstripe.

Third one out is a HGW Granite Specter. This one is a Female so into the rack she will go as a hold back for future breedings!

Fourth one out is some kind of Ivory. Check out how washed out the head is! It doesn't look like the regular Ivories I have hatched out in the past, it looks more like the Pastel Ivories I have hatched out. I am hoping as this one ages I will see something that tells me it is a HGW Ivory and not just a regular one. I also need to find out what Kevin thinks. If it turns out it is one that would be very cool since this one is a Male.

The Ivory one shed so I took some new picture of him. I have searched all over the web for pictures of regular Ivories and most of them have much darker heads than this one but I just don't know what to think about it. He also appears to have no pattern that I can discern not even the faint yellow line on his back that most Ivories have. If anyone has a clue please let me know.

Fifth one out is what I thought might be a HGW but under further review appears to be a YB.

Sixth one out is what I really hoped was a HGW since it is a Male but also under further review appears to be a YB.

The last one out out is another Superstripe.

The End
