Since all the pairings have actually been done now, I just wanted to share my breeding pairs for the '24 season. Took a break for a few years to really get into the genetics and make some plans for what I really wanted to breed, and I did have actual plans… but I ended up with 4 oddball pairings instead 
All of the females are first timers so this season could end up horribly, but it is what it is 
First pairing will hopefully result in some more vibrant tricolours, but I mainly just wanted to see what’s up with the female. Confirmed lock on the 10th of December, but still no eggs. The male prolapsed and had to have an amputation unfortunately, so I’m probably not gonna repair them even if she never lays. In that case I’ll just try again with another male next season, or if she starts laying multiple sets of duds.
The second will hopefully result in some funky patterning, both of them have a really funky look to their pattern imo. Confirmed lock on the 1st of January. No eggs. Probably gonna repair if nothing by the end of the month, though I have heard of females that went upwards of 5 months before they started laying
The third one I’m hoping for some het EB LWs though I’m not actually sure that the male is an EB; neither of the babies out of him I was sent photos of were EBs so I’m excited to see what he’ll throw. Paired 03/03.
The last one was a mistake on the previous owners part; I got her from the same home as the male from pairing 3, and wanted to pair her with that male as well, however they accidentally gave me a very similar but different female that had already been paired; So I already know one pairing I’ll be doing next year 
Love the kind of faded look of her pattern, so Im excited to see what the babies will look like regardless. No idea when she was paired, but she’s been in her laybox for the past few days so
