"het pied markers" on normal females

I know there are a few people who have been waiting to see what would come from breeding these two girls~
Both are WC 03 subadult females with what LOOKS like the "het pied markers" so many people talk about
Lips:

and Hydra


which I bred to a 100% het pied male WITHOUT the markers (he is a proven het pied from RDR~ purchased directly from RDR so I am sure of his genetics)


I knew there was not really any chance the females were hets......but we all like to dream a little~ and with everything you hear about the "het pied markers" I just had to pair these girls up to a known het pied to see. Between the two girls I got 13 babies~ three are males and ten are females. Great ratios! But no pieds. Oh well~ I didn't actually expect any......but I was hoping to be the next lucky SOB everyone hated! LOL!

Awww... No go then

Thats OK im sure its fun to experiment, and besides, like you said, freakin Awesome ratios there!

Either way, congrats on the little ones!

Congrats on a couple nice clutches, Cheryl!! Gotta love the ten females!!

Yeah~ those two clutches were really good ratios! But I got another clutch of 50% hets (sired by a different 100% het male) that was 4.1 this morning.......so it looks like the ratios may catch up with me with all the males! Oh well~ I still have 11 new poss het girls now~ and more clutches to hatch yet!
