Yes and no ......Both Mothers "Do" have different carapace/shell shapes which does show through in the different hatchlings from each .....Wow some beautiful Orange on them. Are their shells a bit different shapes also? Flat and domed?
Just saw this thanks for the reply!! Interesting explanation. Makes sense!! ))Yes and no ......Both Mothers "Do" have different carapace/shell shapes which does show through in the different hatchlings from each .....
as well as.... In all young hatchlings (very young)...the appearance tends to be more "dome like" from being curled up within the egg. As the neo-nate matures , this tends to flatten out and take shape that most are accustomed to seeing....and following the genetic make-up of the parents. My male Hypo is very domed shaped compared to the females.
