Thought I would share a couple of pics of one of my MDs that hatched out this year. It is the first year this pair has been bred together and the female, although small (only weighed 1kg after egg deposition) dropped 14 eggs. One egg didn't make it and the rest hatched. Out of the 13 that hatched there were 3 that were totally different to the rest. The first one, in the pics below, is the most unusual and almost patternless variation. So whether it is an incubation fault or is genetic I do not know until I breed the offspring back together and see if they reproduce the same morph.
Anyway, thought I would throw some pics up as I have never seen any unusual patterns or markings on MDs before.
First 2 pics are of the unusual MD, the 3rd is a normal sibling and the last two is of another one that came out in the same clutch.
Let me know what you think?
Cheers
