Ugh, I am so jealous! He or she is absolutely stunning. They have to be my favorite morph too, it's just so pretty. Are you going to breed them?

Again, super pretty animal you've got there!

Yes i do plan on breeding her.. most likely to a zero male.. I would like to produce a double co=dom mutation. She is already 30 grams so he has a few months to go.

The white out's are awesome. I may be wrong here but I've heard the white out trait is deleterious in the homozygous form.

You HAVE to post more photos of this girl, her future male, and any babies. Just to make the rest of us green with envy!

I think so, JMG Reptiles has some photos of the double-whiteout babies that came out of the egg just about 95% white, but died in the egg or just after hatchling. It's very interesting. Sad, but interesting.

You are correct the homozygous form is fatal as of right now. Thats not to say that with a little out breeding that it cant happen. Jeff @ JMG said the longest any of the super whiteouts have lived was 4 days. So maybe there is some hope, cause the pics of the super on his website are amazing.
Thanks

Yea, they're really very beautiful. I can't wait until they start coming out with more variety of morphs. So far there are only about 5-6 morphs, I think?
