Fun clutch surprise

A couple of years ago I kept 1.2 normal hatchlings that came from clutch I hatched of about 12 or so normal hatchlings. This clutch was produce by a amel motley male x blood red female which I had purchased from Different reptile expos down here in Florida. Both of these parents had no known hets.
This year I bred the normal hatchling hold backs together hoping to get a fire or a blood red motley if I was lucky. The first clutch just started hatching yesterday.
Now the fun part .....7 of the 11 hatchlings have left the eggs and are......
Snow blood red
Snow
Fire pied sided motley (medium expression)
Amel
Blood red
Motley
Normal

The 4 left in the egg appear to be a snow, and 3 non-Amels.

So now I know that one of the grandparents is het Avery.

This clutch really exceeded my expectation.
