Hello folks,
Revisiting the hobby after a long time. Wanted to ask for some help identifying the hatchlings from the pairing below. I was trying to prove out a het hypo. Failed I think, but ended up with interesting results.
Pairing was a female Low White Pied het Hypo (female) to a Pied Enchi Pastel poss. het Hypo
Ended up with this:
Looking for some feedback on what they are. I have my thoughts but don’t want to muddy the waters. One interesting thing I found was how low white most of these are.
Thanks in advance.

Gorgeous animals! You did get pretty low white pieds, which is cool. As for IDs, I could technically give it a go from that picture but your best bet is going to be to get individual pictures of each baby in natural lighting after their first shed, and then we can really help you ID!
I see a couple of definite enchi pieds (7 and 5 for sure) along with a couple of pastel and pastel enchi combos. I agree right now that you didn’t hit any hypos, but verify after they shed for the first time, you’d be surprised how much color can change after that first shed.

Thank you!
Will update the post once they shed.
As promised, posting post-shed.
I have an idea of what some of them might be but would like some input. The new numbers don’t match the previous photo.
Looking forward to some feedback! Thank you

They’re gorgeous! The only correction I would make to your IDs is I believe #3 is another pastel enchi pied. Aside from that, I agree with what you see!

Thank you! This was incredibly helpful.
I agree with Inspiration on #3
It’s a shame it looks like the pos het hypo didn’t pan out. You could send a shed sample in to test if that’s available for you just to be 100% certain if you don’t want to repeat breeding.
