Captive Hatched Harlequins?????????????

Ugh, it wasn't bad enough that I had Dora the Explorer and Elmo stuck in my head from babysitting, now this

I particularily like the harlequins that display a lot of that side pattern that looks somewhat like dripping paint. I've noticed that most of the ones called harlequins display some of this pattern, but I haven't seen any yet that display this all the way down both sides. I think it would be fun to work with these just for that trait alone.

I'm going to have to agree with ya!

I think that Harlequins, as normal as they may seem to some. Are Beautiful animals that we'll probably see alot more crosses with in the future. I can't wait to find out what the final verdict will be on the genetics and if they can prove it later on to be co-dom. If it does prove out later to be a co-dominant gene I think alot of people will change their minds about them and you'll see more around...

I think that it would be fun and an incredible experience to buy a pair of Funky CH animals... Raise them up... Breed them... and just see what happens! Forget about the $, Forget about whether your going to produce the next big thing and how much you can capitolize on it...

I think alot of people have really kind of lost the whole idea and passion of this Hobby... It seems like alot of people these days just aren't really about the dirty work of proving morphs, taking a chance with something or just seeing what comes out of 2 cool looking animals without knowing a definite answer on what the outcome will be... $$$ wise & Genetics...




Just think how rediculous a super pastel harlequin would look!

Great Idea to create a thread on these guys!

Thanks to everyone who posted pictures of their harley's! I'll definetly have to add a harley to my collection sometime for sure! Regardless as to what it produces...

Ed,

Don't sell that harly you have on KS. It's a female that could make some killer offspring.

Steve, Thanks for saying that . I really have alot of Harlequins Im raising up. Just wanna share the Love. HAHAHAHA

Your welcome... I've always liked funky odd balls... The fact that they aren't 100% entirely figured out really adds to the fun as well...

I want to go to Africa! Seriously... how sick would it be to just go on a little mission to africa and collect your own funky specimen? I dunno... You can't help but have alot of respect for the guys who dedicate/dedicated their time to prove out morphs ya know? Peter Khal, Amir, Greg Graziani, Bob Clark, Kevin @ Nerd...

Anybody else have a harlequin(s) to share?

waiting on pics of mine to be e-mailed to me!

I know it has been months and that this thread had died out, but I have not had web access for a minute. Here's Harley. (I know, it's a real original name!)
