Yes, mine too is the smallest of my 01s. But, opposite to your charcoal ghost, mine has gotten alot longer, but not put on too much girth.

Not surprisingly, charcoal motleys have crossed my mind a time or two. Unfortunately, I have NO normal motley females, so some other genes will be thrown into the mix.

It's a toss up between breeding him to an amel motley, or an anery motley het hypo.

Charcoal X Amel mot: Would allow me to test the charcoal for being het amel. But, throwing the amel gene in, I *could* get blizzard mots (albeit 1 in 64 odds).

Charcoal X Anery mot het hypo: Would allow me to test the charcoal for being hypo, or being het hypo. But, on a downside, breeding the F1s together could give me anery mots, ghost mots, charcoal mots, and 'phantom' mots. Could get fun trying to figure what each hatchling IS. Not to mention, what would an animal exhibiting BOTH anery A and B look like??

I'll likely breed him to the anery mot het hypo. I'm not big on amel mots, so I'll probably not go with the amel mot. The anery mots have a nice contrast of saddle to ground colours. IMHO

I'm almost salivating at the thought of a phantom motley.;)
