Creamsicle

[Dan W]

I am considering buying Creamsicles or other morphs with the emoryi blood in it. When bred will the F2, F3, etc. look as good as the F1 or will the fade out?

Thanks,
Dan

They would remain the same, improve, or decline in looks. ;)

There is no reason that they wouldn't continue to improve with selective breeding. I have heard nothing to indicate that emoryi in the bloodline would cause fading in subsequent breedings.

My F2 and F3 Creamsicles show no sign of degrading color, some are improved and some are not as nice.

I believe that it is the grey rat that causes the saddles to fade though my emoryi x miami has faded spots on the side and they are f1
