WICKED!

Thanks for the replies everyone. I am glad you like him. As promised, here are a few more pictures of him. There is another Sunkissed Motley in the clutch as well. We think this one is a male also. He has almost as striking a head pattern as the first guy. I will get pictures and post them later. After working with this line for a few years, besides the extreme head patterns, I have noticed a couple of trends that seem to repeat itself with every clutch. All the Sunkissed produced seem to be a bit brighter then other Sunkissed babies I have seen. Also, this line exhibits what Brent (Drizzt40) has described/deemed as "white cheeks". Every one that I have produced has this trait. I really like the look and I hope this line continues to produce these tendencies. Another issue that seems to hold true is the fact when Sunkissed and the other pattern traits are crossed, there tends to be aberrancies not only in the overall pattern of the animal but aberrancies with the belly checks as well. The sire to this clutch has a perfect white belly, as well as the dame, yet both of the Sunkissed Motley produced so far this year have faint, aberrant belly checks. Go figure. More work needs to be done with Sunkissed to see what exactly is going on. It is my personal opinion, without a shadow of a doubt, that Sunkissed is in fact a pattern trait and not a Hypo trait. Thanks for looking and I hope you like.

Um, yeah... I'm gonna need one of these. :D
I might be able to help you with that. There are two in this clutch and another in a different clutch. ;)

Thanks for the great replies everyone. Here are a couple of pictures of the second in the clutch. This ones head pattern isn't as extreme as the first but still pretty cool. This one also has aberrant belly checking and expresses the "white cheeks" as well. This clutch has been out of the eggs for a couple of days now and they have already started to go into blue. I can't wait to get pictures once they have all shed. Thanks for looking and I hope you like.

Jay, that last one is lovely even in deep blue. Maybe I am going to work with SK in the future after all!
 
Absolutely beautiful! And I have to say that personally, I like the head pattern on the second one more! :)
 
Great idea for a breeding project! I've always liked the head patterns on corns. I see the Gemini symbol on that last one!
