Danny, Kate....
Bitter sweet is a very good description of my first time experience with the lavender gene. Very nice all on it's own...lavender is even "prettier" when combined with diffusion and stripe! I'll talk with nanci,she has the male, and see if we can do this pairing again next year. While there were plenty of heart breaks involved in this clutch, I don't think it's a %100 gonna happen every time kind of thing. Matter a fact, if at all possible, I'd like to produce a lot more lavender charcoal stripes! Such a pretty little hatchling! Over all, I'm pleased with what we got....could have been better. Maybe Murphy will look past us next season. Two eggs left, and I'm not holding out much hope for them. So, thank you all for sharing in this clutch with me!
Danny,
Nope, not gonna happen!
. I'll roll the dice and play the odds.
