Granite hatchlings.

[Michael823]

Hey everyone,

I had posted a thread under genetics about my interesting granite clutch, and have finally gotten around to getting 'some' pictures.

The pairing was between a Granite (unknown hets) x Ghost Blood. I love them both as is, so I was looking forward to any range of appearances between the two...

As you can see, they aren't all post shed pics. But I was just excited to get some photos up to share. I'll certainly be taking more photos as we go, because I am super happy with them.

Thanks for looking.

That's some pretty extreme diffusion, Michael! Beautiful babies!

that is a beautiful pattern. very distinctive. congratulations!

Thank you !


I had gone back through my old photos of the father to see how he looked as a baby compared to these guys, and he surprisingly had a much more noticeable pattern. So
I'm quite excited to see how these look after each shed.

Here's the father as a baby...

And the father (Granite) as an adult...

Thank you kindly!

New Hampshire's 'the granite state', so maybe there was a little home cooking with this clutch, lol. I'm just hoping they all eat for me, so that I can look forward to watching them grow and change.

Just beautiful!

Thank you, Janine.

So far three have shed (one has eaten). I'm expecting the other 3 to have shed by the time I get home, and hopefully they'll take a meal from there. Otherwise I'll just leave them alone for a few days and try again.

*Updated photos

All six have shed, but only three have eaten (so far). I didn't want to disturb them too much, and I didn't get photos of all of them. I'll post the others after they digest, because one of them shows even more white (complete diffusion) on the sides than the one shown here.

First up is one of the Granites with quite a bit of patterning on the side. But I love his pattern none the less (especially his head pattern).

Another baby with a bit more patterning. But I just love this guys head pattern.

Just a few photos to show off the white diffusion on this one.

Another baby with really nice diffusion. I love their faces!

I think they got bored with the photography.

Thanks for looking!
