These fantastic, speckled babies were a surprise from breeding our male Axanthic/Anerythristic retic to a female Calico. The entire clutch exhibits the same broken, granite-like pattern, so we are extremely excited to delve further into the genetics behind these animals. Time will tell what the exact recipe is for this morph, in the mean time we’ll be dreaming of Granite Lavender, Granite Albinos, Granite Tigers, even the possibility of Granite Super Tigers! Our second clutch of these babies was produced in late May 2003, so be on the lookout for exciting updates on the Granite-backed retics!
