Eclipses, but the extreme OPPOSITE of carrottail!

I don't just have carrottails =) Here is a sneak peek at other eclipse projects that have been in the works:

"Dark Knight" is a dark eclipse male I produced a few years back, he is heavily spotted and also has two paradox spots! Unfortunately, I haven't been able to reproduce the paradox spots consistently in his offspring. It seems to pop up randomly every 4-8 eggs? even when bred to completely unrelated females. I've also had many random paradox blotches produced on tangerine and carrottail offspring over the years, so I know it can happen randomly. Next season I plan to breed him to a few of his daughter and granddaughters who also have 1-2 paradox spots. This eclipse paradox project may be very long term but imagine a dark eclipse with 4-5 paradox blotches splashing across their backs!

Next up is a heavily spotted dark eclipse female produced by "Dark Knight" in 2009. She is very beautiful in her own way and all the offspring she has produced retain a high volume of spots. I really like the heavy speckles-reminds me of the speckled het blizzards years ago!

Let me know what you think!

I like them, too. :main_thumbsup: They look like a speckled marble floor :main_yes: But if I had to choose, I would take one of your carrot tails over them :main_yes: They look too much like my former speckled Snow Enigma het Blizzard. "Speckles" belongs to someone else on this forum now :D :main_yes: She even had snake eyes.

Somehow, my Mack Snow Enigmas het Blizzard all looked a lot like that, but to hatch a really nice carrot tail Eclipse is much rarer, so I'd go for the latter.

I have to disagree Chrissy... These really float my boat! Looking forward to see what you do with this cool project!
