    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Dinker clutch hatched...

He is lovely. I am sorry that I messed up your plans.:eek:

Didn't mess up anything. Now I know it wasn't a waste of time working on this project (as some said) and it proved out. Ralph Davis has Dirty Joe but his never proved out even when it was bred back to the babies. As far as markers go, well, I have noticed a few things with the babies but it may or may not be specific. The only possible hets produced have been in this cluch. The rest are all 100% hets. Deb contact me. I want to discuss the offspring in a bit more detail
 
Alrighty then, Go ahead and cross over now.
Just remember, Run to the light...
:reddevil:

Just kidding Deb.
Congrats on proving out this dinker project, and being the first to do so.
The Super form is Hot.

Congrats to you too Steve, and now you and Harald know what y'all have to look forward to.
Did y'all notice any subtle markers that are consistent on the hets?

It looks like some recessive form of a clean up mutation, like the Pastel or Fire gene.
Unfortunately it will not have a Super form like the other cleaners do, because it is the Super form.
However, it will be very interesting to see how it combines with and enhances some of the other genes.

:rofl: I think that I will stick around for a bit longer. ;) The light is a long way off and I am too tired to run. :rofl:

Interestingly enough, I had picked up this little beauty (Blonde Pastel) at a Hamburg show about a year or two ago (she died within 6 months of septic infection incurred by the bites/burns that were on her when I purchased her).

I had been interested in the IMG gene even then...perhaps I can recreate my little beauty.

*sorry for the sucky pics taken with my camera phone.

I sent you a pm some time ago, you haven't replied.;)
 
After shed pics!

I have not brightened the pics, I have used flash. Because of this, I tried to take pictures from a lot of angles and under different parts of the room (light exposure).


That said..I present...(drum roll)

Thanks...if I remember correctly..the visuals are females and the hets are males. Could be just the luck of the draw...I did so wish one of the visuals had been a male!
 
Those little guys could definitely spice up some of the morphs out there. Have fun adding to the project, and if you ever need someone to try crossing them, I'm here for you haha :D

Thanks!! I'll only be taking in females that I don't have in my stock...do you have a Spectre male? :rofl:

UPDATE...They are eating and growing..
The first two visuals are females and the last two hets are males.

UPDATE..

September 2010.

The face stripes on female 2 seem to be turning white...

The first two pics are female 1, the last pic is female 2. The white on the top of female 2 is where she scraped her head on the clay pot in her tub (nolvosan was applied).
