What are these babies!?

Here's pictures of the first two Aneries.

The hypos and ghost look like all the hypos and ghosts I've hatched out over the years. The anerys', however, seem much to light to be typical newly hatched anery A's, which are usually distinctly black at hatching but often get lighter after a few sheds. Something doesn't seem right and there may be another gene involved, but I'm not sure if it's ultra. We may be able to tell more once they have had their first sheds as some hatchlings are already "in blue" when they leave the egg and that can make positive morph identification more difficult.
 
Numquam ponenda est pluralitas sine necessitate

They look hypo to me. The fact that the "odds" may be off in regards to how many are occurring from potentially het hypo parents means nothing. Sure you "expect" to get less visibles from het to het parents. They all look like what I'd expect each to be jmho...

Should never "expect" anything, it's almost as bad as assuming ;)

Beautiful babies!!!!

Nice Suprises!!!

Expecting the unexpected!!!

Gotta love Cornsnake Breeding!!!

Congrats!
 
Considering I was expecting Normals and a few Anerys' maybe an Amel or a Snow... These guys were very unexpected! And yes this is the reason I love breeding corn snakes, It's been like X-mas morning for the past week!
 
I can't wait for mine to pip :) I "should" have all normals too. The fun part about het's is they can be carried for many generations.
 
If those were ultras wouldn't mom have to be an ultramel and she looks like an amel to me?
 
Well since mom is an Amel they couldn't be ultras... however if dad was Het ultra they could be ultramel (Ultra + Amel)
 
Can you have Ultramels and Hypo A's in the same clutch? I honestly do not know that answer can someone ring in on that? If so, could this be the case? Just a thought...
 
Yes, you can have ultra and hypo in the same clutch, just as you can have hypo and amel because they exist different places genetically.
 
The eyes of the hypos look too dark to me to be ultramel. You would have also expected to see some males and snows but of course that is just the odds.

Pretty babies whatever they are. I like surprise het clutches!
 
You wouldn't get snows or amels if the Dad is het ultra, and he can't be het amel at the same time. I also wouldn't get any normals if he was ultra or ultramel.

Two more normals came out and there's another normal half-way out. The last egg has pipped but I can't tell what it is.

Looks the the odds are hitting about right now :) I'll add the pictures to the other thread. If the last is a hypo or ghost i'll post it here. And I'll post some pictures when they shed :) Thanks everyone for helping me figure out what these guys are. :)
 
For everyone playing with the numbers, remember that the "odds" are for each egg and not for a clutch. 1 in 4 odds per egg could easily have produced no visibles as well as all visibles.

Murphy likes to play games ;)
