This is the only one I am sure I am keeping - I want to see how its color progresses. I want to work on an Okeetee creamsicle project and it looks like it will be a good cornerstone for it.

Congrats - very nice creamsicles - great orange tones and your keeper looks like a good potential for light background - hard to see border width yet. Do you have pics of the parents?

Thanks! The mother is super sweet and more classic creamsicle looking (she was fat with an unintentional double clutch of 25 eggs that all went bad in this picture - so hopefully she passes that high fertility on and next year I know I had better put her with the male again if she is going to double clutch on me anyway).

The father is super sharp looking - his background is really white, he doesn't even have any yellow on his neck. I expect the babies to be anywhere in between the parents. Even though they haven't shed, I can tell some are going to be brighter like the dad and others will be more pastel like the mom.
