A few keepers from this season

Postby Ray Gurgui » Mon Jun 30, 2014 4:38 pm

Some of the babies I'm keeping from this year, because of the color, bands or pattern. Or just part of some long term projects that are finally kicking in.
Oh what the heck, I just like them. Call me weird !! Oh wait ... you all do anyway!

There are more but they are in the blue!
I think baby season is over here at my house , so the total baby BTS this year was 201,
I'm glad most of them are gone already, still have some Caramel Northerns and Irian Jayas left to find homes for.
That's no problem, Daytona is next month !!

I'll add more pics when they shed.

The white line babies are beautiful. Northerns have too much black for my taste. Keep up the good work and let me know if you have any available with this pattern!

None of the white line babies are for sale ... yet. I have to see how long it takes for the color change , and what kind of color they get. :noknow:
They are from 3 different "WL" white line females .

A few more WL .

Nothing weird about any of those holdbacks - they are beautiful!

Congrats. I can't imagine feeding 201 babies!

It would be a shame if they lose that stunning white. Please keep us updated after sheddings.

Love when yellow becomes the dominant color. Keep breeding and hopefully we'll see a few on the market soon
