The Okeetee Tesseras began hatching yesterday- this morning I had a nice little pile of babies. There are 5 Okeetee Tesseras in all and should be awesome looking once their colors develope! Enjoy.

I know Terri- this is the time of year that reminds us why we do this! Hopefully- as usual- the "ugly duckling" rule will apply and these dark Tesseras will bloom into beautiful thick bordered Okeetee Tesseras!

Raise 'em up and breed them a 2nd time back into THICK BORDERED Extreme Okeetees. LOL- I'm alwasy chasing the dream of uber super solid back blotches (or in this case- stripes). Might not ever achieve it BUT if I can get at leats 1/2 the blotches on an okeetee solid black (and reproduce it reliably) I'll be super happy!
 
You know, with the dominant trait of Tessera, things could look up faster than if you were playing with recessive traits...LOL. I would love to see a full grown Tessera Okeetee.
 
Did you see Heather's Miami Tessera project? That looks really promising, too!

I think I'd take one of these female Tesseras and breed her to that beautiful male you have- male okeetee.
