Striped Tesseras

I have been trying to produce a Lava Motley Tessera for several years, because I like how Blue Motley Tesseras look. I thought Lava Motley Tesseras would look pretty FINE too!

Breeding: Tessera het Striped Lava Snow X Lava Motley het Striped Snow.

No Lava Motley Tesseras , but two Striped Tesseras popped up. A Striped Lava Tessera and Striped Anery Tessera het Motley.

The last photo is a comparison photo between a Striped Lava Tessera vs Striped Lava from my Striped Lava line. They look even more extreme than a "Vanishing" Striped Corn.

This is my forth clutch with this breeding, and they have produced a few Motleys and Stripes, but this Phenotype stands out as Striped Tessera, until they prove otherwise.

Ice Tessera het Motley

Ice Tessera het Motley

From the same breeding as the above Striped Tesseras. I also produced a Lava Tessera het Motley, so I will reach my Lava Motley Tessera goal eventually.

Sunkissed Tessera

Sunkissed Tesseras are easy to pick out due to their color and pattern, BUT what about other Sunkissed Tessera Combines.

I believe this is an Amel Lava Sunkissed Tesssera, from a breeding between a Lava Tessera het Sunkissed Butter, but all I really have to go on is the genetic possibilities, and the pattern.

Topaz Sunkissed Tessera

Breeding: Lava Tessera het Sunkissed Butter X Same

Is this a Butter Sunkissed Tessera, a Topaz Sunkissed Tessera or perhaps a Lava Butter Sunkissed Tessera?

So do you like Topaz Sunkissed, or Lava Honey better? They mean the same thing as Caramel Lava Sunkissed.

I am pretty sure that he is a Sunkissed Tessera based upon his pattern alone.

Snake creations did you produce that honey or buy it from someone? I have a 2017 female honey from SMR that looks almost identical.

She's from Don as well :) She's one of my favs - always out and about, curious and a super aggressive eater. She's got the stubbiest little nose.

He looks pretty good, even though he is getting ready to shed any day.

Possibly homo Tessera

Sunkissed Lava Tessera ph Butter

I found another Sunkissed Tessera when I was feeding today, a Sunkissed Lava Tessera ph Butter.

When compared to a sibling in the second photo which is what the parents look like, it is pretty obvious that the first photo is of a Lava Sunkissed Tessera. The patterns on Sunkissed Tesseras are pretty consistent, even though some regular Tesseras have an aberrant pattern, the Sunkissed pattern on Tesseras is a little different, and this one also has a pattern on its head, that we often see on regular Sunkissed.

I totally forgot that this gal was a tessera because she's mostly hiding XD

This is Ruiva, and I won her from Steve Roylance. She's a hypo cinder tessera

Question: is it considered “undesirable” if a tessera has a broken stripe? Is a continuous stripe better?

It's all just personal preference. I personally prefer either ends of the spectrum - an extremely clean continuous stripe or a crazy broken up stripe - but not so much the middle of the spectrum, a slightly broken stripe.
