This year I test bred my "Rusty Frosted". He was purchased as a hatchling in 2002 as the offspring of two F2 Hypos that were out of a Hypo Corn X Grey Rat paring. I always suspected he carried the Caramel gene, but never suspected Ultra until the great "Ultra" thread.
1st test breeding, Rusty Frosted male X Snow female. This female was proven not het Hypo A after producing over 60 different hatchlings using two different proven male Hypos.
Results from 1st clutch:
18 eggs
Ultramel - 2
Ultramel Anery - 3
Amel - 5
Snow - 8
Results from second clutch
11 eggs
Ultramel - 1
Ultramel Anery - 3
Amel - 3
Snow - 4
2nd test breeding, Rusty Frosted male X Amber female (proven Hypo A)
Clutch results
9 eggs
All Caramels, no Ambers.
Interesting enough, these were the pairings that produced the undetectable Hybrids in this thread
