Comments: Superior color, pattern and size maturity. She was put into brumation on October 10, 2012 and emerged on Feb. 7, 2013 so she had an adequately long and cold dormancy period. Last year she laid 23 fertile eggs so if you are looking for an egg machine, she will fit the bill. The connected markigns are the result of polygenic trait interactions (not a mutation) so breeding her to anotehr okeetee with similar markings will swiftly promote the pattern anomaly, and threough selective breeding can stretch the anomolous pattern from neck to tail. Breeding her to an Okeetee without any such pattern aberrancy will result in some of the progeny having some degree of the pattern anomaly.
