I hardly ever take pics of these guys. I was taking pics of my Red Axanthics and after I put everyone away from the group shot I was looking around the room and realized that I forgot about the Bandeds (I do that all the time!). So, here are some pics.
F2 Banded Female produced from Breeding my original Banded male back to one of his F1 Daughters.

This is my original banded male with one of his F2 Daughters. He is both banded and hypo melanistic (which appears to not be inheritable at this time).

Here is the Original Banded male, F1 Daughter (mother of the F2 Bandeds) and F2 Daughter. I have always called the F1 Daughter a "regular", however, her bred back to her father produced 1.2 outstanded Bandeds and 1.1 busy patterned normals.......So, maybe she is a banded???

Group shot of some of my Bandeds. I have quiet a few offspring from this line (in around 12 animals). On the left of the pic you have the original Banded male with 1.1 F2 offspring. On the right of the pic you have 0.2 F1 Offspring (mother of the F2's on the bottom and the best looking F1 female I've produced on the top). It seems that all of the nice looking F1 bandeds were all males!.....so it was nice to get a nice looking female out of the bunch.

This season I had 6 adult females from my Banded male (f1 daughters) in the breeding group, however, I only had 2 females bred back to their banded father (the mother of the F2's and a nice looking banded female which was not pictured). The other females were bred with my other higher end males. At this time both females have not ovulated so time will tell if I produce any this year or not.
Enjoy the pics,
Corey
