Yesterday we had this -
Both rear feet were out!
This morning I lifted the shell off of him to find this -
A beauty with the colors and head patterns otherwise!
He incubated a good 136+ days.
"The jury is still out on this one........." especially since the first 2 from the same clutch.. are perfectly formed.
What causes this in ONE hatchling out of a clutch.. but doesn't in the others'?
I have had this occur in the other females.. maybe 2% of the hatchlings.. but never SONshine - and in the past 2 years the same 2 males only!
Let's hear what you other breeders have to say?
O.K. --- speculation is fine from others too
Thanks all...
