    Question pickeringii-problem

    Hello,

    I have a small problem with a puget little man what I the last year has agreed!
    Namely it is not about it I the animal exactly can arrange!
    The parents are blue both pickeringii and little devils!
    These have already got in 2007 younger generation, with this throw everybody was blue and now now in 2008 the "eccentric" was present!
    All brothers and sisters animals are "normally" blue coloured auser this only little man!
    He is completely orange, up to the lateral ingots, these are in … … humph, we say chartreuse!!
    Namely it is for me in the reason taken about how I should arrange the animal!
    Speak from the colour!
    I know this the colour very differently can fall out, I have, for example, a puget little man more turquoise than is blue or a female where dorsalstreifen is yellow blue instead of! But such a thing an animal completely in orange!
    Unfortunately, nobody could help me up to now really what approaches my problem, the only one what up to now came, besides, out it was the animal does not state Reinerbig would be!
    Now I would hear with pleasure your opinion in addition!






    Greetings
    Markus

    A color morph perhaps?

    Hmmm, so what you are saying is that your blue pugets produced a bunch of blue ones and then this one too?! that's very weird... but i know there are other color types of pugets, such as red! I am not sure how that works.. but I would keep it and find out

    Re: pickeringii-problem

    Recessive trait from of of the parents maybe? I wonder what would happen if you bred him back to a blue female out of the same parents as him! Maybe really really striking orange babies or incredibly blue ones? (and if that is bogus I apologize, again just working off my knowledge of fish! hehe, i want a snake ><)

    In any case he's defiantly unusual and a looker!

    it doesn't look like a recessive morph or anything, it just looks like the yellow or red phase of puget. I had no idea it was possible for them to pop up from the blue ones!!
