    :? hi all, just been to look at some hatchlings and was wondering if anyone can identify this morph, they have a grey background black saddles with red or orange spots either in the middle of the saddles or inbetween the saddles there is also some white around the saddle area. on first looking at them they look like bronze corns but then you notice the red/orange colouration. there is also some very nice red albino's in this batch which i have my eye on for myself :?

    Pics would be VERY helpful.
    With corns it's hard to say without seeing them.

    Are all these hatchlings from the same clutch? I'm guessing the miami is het amel to have amels and normals in the clutch...I'm not sure where a bloodred het hypo would come from in this pairing...A bloodreds belly will not have checkers; it will be all white with a little color from the dorsal "seeping" into the white ventrum scales...pics would really help too lol, but cheers, SusyQ, and good luck with them :*)
