Here are a few pictures of a cinder scaleless that hatched out yesterday. The story on this is as follows - two years back I bred a scaleless male het amel x a cinder female het bloodred. Got a bunch of offspring, kept them all and bred them this past spring. The clutches started hatching, all late (every female bred on the second shed) - some nice scaleless, including a really smoking bloodred (only one amel so far, a non-scaleless peppermint), but no cinder scaleless (a 1 in 16 chance). Finally, one head popped out that looked like a cinder one night last week just before I turned in for the night - when I checked the next morning, it had emerged from the egg and died! Fully formed, seemingly fine, but for whatever reason it wasn't meant to be.
So I was quite quite pleased and relieved, on the next to last clutch, that this little guy popped out. Looks exactly like what you would expect a cinder scaleless should look like, but who knows what will happen as it goes through a few shed cycles.
Thanks for looking!
