BB Variant

[BlueBolts]

If someone had shown me this pic, I would have said it was a BB Tibee. But this variant appeared in my BB colony, which has been breeding true for several generations ...

Sparkly-Rilli-BB

[shrimpstan]

No problem BB I saw the pic ages ago, and here's me thinking these wouldent be avaliable in OZ in the foreseeable future..

guess I was wrong..... Soo I'm calling first dibs lol

Does that mean there's now such a thing as sparkle/glitter gene?

Awesome variant BB! I love the sparkly layer and the rilli like structure of patterning! Great work yet again!

[Squiggle]

Sparkle sparkle! Very cool :victorious:

[newbreed]

Is the sparkle layer similar to the spots found on the tigers?? Only white instead of peppery black?

if so, ninja may need to try for a white glitter tiger strain?!? :)

What do you cross with the bb to get that colour in a juvenile

Purely of my BB colony...just a variation.

My Tibee population has variations of BB Tibee (Pic below)... but there's a noticeable difference in it's colour and pattern. Still a juvi' date=' so will update this thread over the coming weeks/months.

So is this new sparkly variant called a Twilight shrimp?

[Wraithie]

Please no!

[Squiggle]

Hahaha, every girl will want a sparkle shrimp :victorious:

[JohnH]

Maybe this will be a way to get my wife interested in shrimp?

Look honey a sparkly Edward shrimp

[michael]

Give them a good name cause I want to keep them but I dont think I could refer to them as my twilight shrimp.

[Trav80]

Nice work Marcus, that does look very nice.

LOL at the sparkly / glitter gene.

John: I was thinking the same thing, the wife might approve if they are sparkly and glittery. :)

[ninja]

What about Twinkle Shrimp?

[ineke]

A sparkly purple Twinkle shrimp for me please:cheerful:

[BlueBolts]

Found another weird BB today....this one has a clear tail !

[ineke]

It really must be something in the water with all the mutants you are breeding BB:)

[BlueBolts]

When you say "mutants" are you referring them to mongrels ? Cause I'll just throw them away then. LOL
