I usually refrain from flamboyant, cliché adjectives when describing my babies, but "amazing" seems to be the best
word to describe this clutch. These offspring were the most unusual and beautiful batch of chondro babies I have ever seen.
Trooper Walsh agreed, commenting on The ChondroWeb Breeders Forum that, "...we are likely to see things never seen before
in selectively bred chondros with those babies." How prophetic those words became when the yearling began to change colors
and a chondro female named Ella-Diablo emerged as the standout among a whole group of screamers.
This clutch was further elevated in value when Walsh produced the second known US albino in the spring of 2005, making the
sire a 50% possible het and opening the potential for het status of all his offspring. I have three female holdbacks from
this clutch to breed back to the sire in an attempt to prove out his possible het genetics. This is how Walsh produced his
yellow albino baby...imagine the possibilities of dark high end baby albinos.
