Carl it is from the same 2 parents who produce 50% (at current) of the hypos at the Cove'. The others come from the same father different mother.
Male


Female






The other adult female has even a lighter head .....





Thus far we have seen three distinct color phases found in a multi clutches from the same two Hypo Females x Our Hypo Male.
The phases are white/orange, lavender / purple and golden spotted . Most likely a result in a combination of T+ albino and Hypermelanistic and or
Anerythristic / Axanthic gene coding. Every new hatchling is a surprise in itself.
Deffinitly ONE- OF - A KIND- REDFOOTS

Yep, I would agree that there is more going on than a simple hypomelanistic mutation. Those lavender hued neonates are clearly not the same as these more recent hypos.
Strange but interesting.

Getting ready to post another "strange one" ...;) For myself I think they are very neat to say the least and unlike any project I have yet to be seen in the tortoise/redfoot hobby.
