Shed Quiz

Which sheds belong to which animals?

I have to say that I'm tempted to be more difficult than what I had originally planned, as I was going to post up the animals photos as well as the sheds, but I think it will be more entertaining if you guys just guess and see who wins, and I will post up the answers tomorrow.

Shed number one is a dark one, and I talk about the power of this morph often.


Shed number two is a light one, but it is not completely clear. I couldn't get a perfect shot of the pattern, but it is very very slightly there.


Shed number three's pattern is pretty obvious in the shed itself. Just look closely.


So you want a few hints?

Two are dark morphs, one is from an animal I produced myself a few years back and a lot of people enjoy its super form. The other is one that Eric founded. The clearer one is similar to an Albino, but not quite...

MWAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA (Evil laugh)

Enjoy the game, my friends!

What is a clear shed?

What is a Clear Shed?

I keep seeing in the forums, references to clear sheds when people are asking about morphs.


"It is more than likely a morph if it sheds clear"
or 

"It's a Hypo (Ghost) if it sheds clear"

or 

"Something something Clear Shed!"
for those that are trying to sound knowledgeable and really have no idea what they are talking about.

Well, let me put it to you straight, my compadres. 

Below you see two sheds. One is more dark, and one is white.


The dark one is from the poss het Pied from yesterday. She is a "normal".

The other is from an Albino. She is a morph.

Now, let us distinguish and complete the picture for you between the two.

Yes, some morphs shed clear. 
Clear in this definition as to mean that there is a lack of color in the shed itself.

What other morphs shed clear?

Hypos, Albinos, combinations of said morphs and a few others, but most of the morphs that do have very light to no pattern. 

NOT ALL MORPHS SHED CLEAR. 


BUT SOME DO.

Again, one of those points that is pretty interesting, but puts a cog in the intellectual expansion of some people in terms of what defines a morph. People get stuck on this point, and don't get over it, and only believe that all morphs shed clear. 

NOT THE CASE.

So I hope that has educated some in terms of this issue, and also to show you the difference between a clear shed and one that is not with visual imagery. 

I try to incorporate that as much as I can. I'm a visual learner for the most part, so this would help me if I were a noob. 

So hopefully it did for some of you.

Have a fantastic clear day, my friends. Or maybe a dark day. Whatever floats your boat.
