Incubation temps and coloration of Tremper albinos

[BigDan]

Here is what incubation temps do with the Tremper strain albinos.

Check it out.

Incubated at 82 degrees F.




Here is the clutchmate of the one above that was incubated at 90 degrees F






Here is another that just hatched last night incubated for 3 weeks at 80 to fix the sex as female and then incubated at 90 for another 3 weeks to remove melanin.



The pic is a little blurry but you get the idea they will squint and keep their eyes closed in the light. This is because their eyes are so red and lacking melanin that it probably bothers them to have them open in even in low light levels.

This is the way Mr. Tremper does it. Pretty neat stuff.
