Hi,
Just thought I`d post a few pics of this little beauty that hatched out the other day - from a Mack Enigma Het Raptor X Raptor pairing (both JMG parents, so cheers Jeff! ;) )

Couldn`t believe how much she looked like a SS enigma when freshly hatched - had me scrampling to double check all records haha! as you can see though, straight after the first shed, she/he`s developed a really nice white dorsal stripe that switches to a black stripe on the tail; also the high white sides indicate Reverse Stripe too - just hope it keeps it with age.

Hope you like :main_thumbsup:

beautiful! i looks like it has a dorsal stripe but not a tail stripe. i would say it is aberrant rather than a full reversed stripe but it is gorgeous none the less!

AMAZING baby!!! Congrats :D

The thing about Reverse Stripes is noting the color of the Stripe.. on Snows, the stripe down the back is black.. so I wouldn't say it is a Reverse Stripe, but has a very nice Dorsal Stripe :) Again, very amazing baby nonetheless :sweetheart:

Cheers for all the nice, postive comments guys - appreciate all the feedback and opinions.

In all honesty, with the particular breeding group I set up, one of the main mains was just to produce some nice `Black Holes`, so anything over and above that in terms of patterns and stripes is just a massive bonus! Really looking forward to seeing how it develops over the next few months, esp given the change after the initial shed.

Cheers again.
