149. Mixed race offspring from a Macularius x Afghanicus pair.

Seeing as our Afghanicus pair cost a bit of an arm and leg when we imported them from PACHERP last September (2010) we thought it would be a good idea to get the male (Kabul)to earn his keep. So he was put out to stud with a couple of our Macularius girls and here is the result of 1 liasion. The picture below shows the babies produced, which look fairly bog standard normal. Which is pretty much what we expected as the female (Cilla) is a patternless (i.e. recessive morph genes). Both hatched out 29/06/2011 after a 50 day incubation. Must apologise for no hatch weight as we seem to have forgot. Well unless we wrote on the box; will check later. So all in all very normal but not just normal normals as they are a mix of Macularius and Afghanicus. Ideas on what to call them beyond just a macularius Afghanicus cross would be appreciated.
