Well I'm enjoying my first breeding season and have 3 eggs so far from my Mack Snow Raptor x Murphey's Patty breeding. I just wondered what's the weirdest morphs you produced from a pairing? Maybe your project was for A, and some how you got X.

I called it a Enigma, you may have heard of it, it just popped out of a egg one year in 2006. lol:p

thats gotta be the best surprise out of a egg surely?

I think he means you personally breeding, not someone else.

Umm Ive got one, not a great example but its actually more like a disappointment than weird but...

Male(was super tangerine but had lost color at this point so imagine even red-er)

You guys are to funny, I still think the lil fella is nice, I guess you wanted more red, maybe he will develop red as he gets older

uhhhhh! i know, it was a joke obviously went over your head:main_rolleyes:

yeah it did :-/ thought you were just being dumb.


Yeah was hoping for more red or less pattern or both. Just kind of ended up with the not as nice traits of both parents.. owell. He is not ugly by any means but not really award winning.
Nah he wont change. The second pic of him is current and he will be 1 yr old at the end of March.

I don't have pictures but my biggest surprise was pairing my banded tremper male with his daughter who was a redstripe cross het albino and getting a jungle baby with snake eyes! Not a single snake eye since then.

This was from my nieves project. Unfortunately it did not make it, but man as for morph I guess a new name would've had to be created if it proved genetic. They are breeding again this year and hopefully I get another chance at this unique coloration. It is absolutely black and white. Which is very well defined in the contrast and pattern.

Probably the biggest was a super snow blizzard right when the mack snow came out. Who would hhave thought the parents of a new morph were also het bliz

That baby looks so bloated, did it hatch and die or was dead in the egg?

Weirdiest Hatching

Well I'm enjoying my first breeding season and have 3 eggs so far from my Mack Snow Raptor x Murphey's Patty breeding. I just wondered what's the weirdest morphs you produced from a pairing? Maybe your project was for A, and some how you got X.

Not exactly weirdest morph but weirdest hatching.
In 2008 a very rare genetic defect Dwarf hatched
from a (not the) but similar looking couple as this.
Take care. HJ

A few cool ones

These guys came out of a 3 gen. ember project.
One I think is a eclipse.
The other I guess would be a patternless eclipse
Both are male and have pure black eyes.
Let me know what you think thx sean

my fun discovery

These two hatched out Friday. Dad was a snow enigma and mom is a LV blazzing blizzard. It was a bit of a unexpected surprise but I think their sweet.

BSM: it pipped and then did not come out. It was full term and obviously had an egg tooth. I guess it just didn't make a big enough slit, and did not have enough energy to do the rest of the job.
