I want YOUR opinion!!

[[email protected]]

So I just hatched my first clutch that is the result of mating a normal female to a citrus red cross. Lucy laid 25 eggs, 18 of which hatched. From the 18 8 showed real promise of carrying dominate genes of the father Duke. I have 4 pale beardies from the clutch. They started to hatch last week and the last hatched 3 days ago. The last 10 look like norms with bold black stripes to pale black stripes. I will have to do another post for the last 4 that are showing red, but they are only stripes down the sides. One is really dark, the rest are eh.

Here I would like your opinions as to which I should hold back for future projects. Everything will taken with good heart and I am very interested in anything you have to say about these 4 hatchlings.

Thank you very much for your time and input!

I like 1+2, but it really depends on what YOU like. It's always fun to see how they turn out.

It's hard to see their actual color in the pics, sooo I stoled them and adjusted to get rid of that tint (Tell me if it's completely off)

The first one has really nice pattern and colors look more neutral rather than the other babies who look like they'll turn yellow/orange, but the last one pictured has the least pattern. You'll be surprised in a couple sheds how different they all look... You should do a poll

Cute widdle baby dwagons... Keep them ALL!!!

Give them a few weeks to color up some before you make your decision.

Forgot to add. A while back I bought 2 females from the same clutch. When purchased they were Orange Hypo x Citrus. They looked the same but as they matured, one turned a Hypo Yellow and the other turned a deep Orange. So even though they all look similar now, in a few weeks you may see some differences.

Already one is turning really white but the shoulders are still a darker grey. One of them has nice coloring on it, in the sun during bathing it is a really pale green. I like the patterns and they are going through their first shed and one is getting much more yellow coloration. I will post some new pics of them next week after they finish shedding. They are all starting to shed even though one of the Hypos hatched last by a few days. I also checked and they all have clear nails which I am really excited about. When I bought their sire he was really Orange and yellow and now he is pale orange and mostly yellow. Their mother looks normal.

I marked 2 of them as possible hold backs, I haven't decided yet if I am going to keep any of them. When I post the pics you can see the marks, one on the base of the tail and the other on the knee. They turn 6 weeks old on the 14th this month.

I personally pick 3 and 4, but that is just because their pics are super cute

I agree with the above...I would not decide until they are ready to sell. They change so much everytime they shed. I don't sell mine until they are at least 6-8 weeks old and have shed a couple of times. And even then they do turn out completely different from what u envisioned. Great looking draglings. Take care Beth
