Not trying to hijack yoru thread, BUT people had been asking about the Tessera Stripe (did you get yours from Don Soderberg at South Mountain Reptiles)

Here's a pic of a Tessera Stripe I used to have... There's a handful of 'em out there... the stripe gene cleans up/erases the matrix looking pattern on the tessera's sides...

Hey Graham.
No problem.
I got mine from Don yes.

Yeah I am 10000% sure.
We breed her last year to a Butter Motley male to find out about the het motley.
7 Golddusts 1 Golddust Motley 2 Butters and 1 Butter motley where the result.

She is definatly a golddust. But you are right, she is very dark for one.

PS If you want, write something in our guestbook. We would appreciate it.

Thats awsome! Congrats I'm hoping to have that kinda luck this year with some of my projects. Please post tons of pictures when her babies hatch this season. I cannot wait to see the different varieties of Tessera.

Thank you very much Justin.

Thank you! That does make sense that there would be some of these out there as tessera would have to have been test bred to stripes to verify that it was indeed a new gene, therefore creating a bunch of tesseras het stripe, which would then lead to tessera stripes. And great photos! The tessera stripes do look much "cleaner" on the sides, making the stripes stand out so much more, but I would be happy even with a "regular" tessera. I wonder if the addition of stripe would help reduce the craziness in the pattern of the Sunkissed tessera, or would it make it worse since Sunkissed stripes are more a series of dashes instead of stripes? My head hurts now.
