This male has more and more white coming in every year, and his genetics are outstanding.  He produced several melanistic animals for us and is a sibling to Rico's SH05188.  The female produced a large clutch of aggressively feeding pure Arus for us in 2010.  We thought we'd put these together and see what comes out!

• Female began cycling October 1, 2010
• Copulation with SH05191 November 4, 2010

• Female refused food December 12, 2010
• Ovulation January 8, 2011

• 17 fertile eggs laid February 23, 2011.  Female has gone very hormonal blue again.
  

• 100% hatch on April 19, 2011.  10 red, 6 yellow, and one ROTTEN BANANA!  First one we've produced.  There are several outstanding reduced pattern/dark red neos in this clutch.

• 13/17 took F/T room temperature unscented pinks, literally within seconds, on their first feeding attempts.
