Welcome to the one, the only “Who’s Your Daddy?” Dangernoodle Contest!

This is your opportunity to win a FREE dangernoodle of your very own—and did I mention? There’s a good chance it’ll have a mutation…



uxqGpAk.jpg
The ‘Who’s Your Daddy?’ Contest has a simple premise! You may or may not be aware, but snakes have an interesting little biological quirk: If a female breeds with more than one male (oh la la!) she can lay a single clutch with more than one father! (More on that in the FAQ if you like)

So, here’s how all this works:
- We chose 1 Lucky Lady, who incidentally is being named Lady Luck
- And we chose 5 Lucky Gentlemen
- Lady Luck was given very specialized fertility treatments to encourage her to ovulate as many eggs as possible!
- Finally, Lady Luck was, ah, “Courted” by all 5 gentlesneks!
- Now, Lady Luck has laid her clutch—a whopping 8 eggs!!! Wowza!
- While the eggs incubate, which Snekspert Angela suspects will take SIGNIFICANTLY longer than usual, YOU contest-goers will make an educated guess: If you can guess correctly the sex, markings, and mutation of the FIRST BABY to start to hatch…you win that baby!

- And, to give away more than 1 snek…The 2nd baby fully out of the egg will ALSO be given away to the person who guesses correctly about it!!


End Date: ….TBD at this point—I’m hoping to get a good # of entries before ending this! Certainly no sooner than April 10th. I’ll update as we get closer.

1. “First to Hatch” doesn’t mean “First to poke its head out” or “First to Stage 2 Hatching image”. It means “First to come 100% out of the egg and have an adult image.”

2. There is NO cost to enter. It’s 100% free, but you MUST make an actual guess, using the form below. You can only make 2 guesses, and you cannot change them once they’re posted—I’ll be saving them all elsewhere, and will know.

3. Anyone can enter. Anyone at all—even if you don’t own any other dangernoodles.

4. In the event that 2 people correctly guess ALL ASPECTS of the resulting baby, the chronologically FIRST one of the two to have made the guess wins it—So I strongly suggest you read through all guesses BEFORE making yours!!!

5. In the event that nobody guesses it 100% correctly, that’s ok—whoever gets the “most” correct guess wins. (E.G., if the baby that hatches first is a male, with X mutation and markings A, B, C, but Bob the Builder guesses it would be a Female with X mutation and markings A, B, D, and nobody else guessed closer, then Bob the Builder wins the snake. Fair enough?)

6. I want to give away more than 1 baby here…so, the SECOND baby will be given away the same way—again, to the MOST ACCURATE GUESS for Baby #2 to come out of the egg!

7. You MAY wait to put your 2nd guess in up until the babies have their heads poking out! I will allow a # of days (TBA) after the babies start peeping for those who still have 1 guess left to make a guess. Once babies move beyond the first hatching image stage, the contest will be CLOSED for further entries.

What we know: There are 8 of ‘em
What else: Nothin!
Other: Here's where you'll see them start hatching!

THE LUCKY MAMA:
QAXV29q.png
ID #: 51
Name: Lady Luck
Base Color: White
Marking 1: None
Marking 2: None
Marking 3: None
Marking 4: None
Marking 5: None
Mutations?: None
Other:
Mom’s all white with no markings so that she influences baby color as little as possible, to hopefully help make it obvious who dad is. (Also because all the dads look SUPER DIFFERENT and this is the only way to make the babies not be horribly fugly, lol.) She’s been given some pretty amazing fertility treatment, so her clutch is going to be DOUBLE the usual clutch maximum size!!!


THE GENTS:
---ALL of the Daddies have 1 mutation: It may be homozygous or heterozygous, but ALL display 1 mutation. I specifically selected each mutation for a reason, but won’t share that reason with you. :D (ALSO: All Daddies have a DIFFERENT mutation from one another—there are NO mutations doubling-up!!!)
---ALL of the Daddies carry 4 markings: Not all of them DISPLAY them (some are recessive traits they only got in heterozygous) but ALL MALES CARRY 4 DIFFERENT MARKINGS. They ALL have/carry 1x Tier 1, 2x Tier 2, and 1x Tier 3 marking. (Some Daddies may share the same marking.)
---Colors are listed in parentheses, names of markings are bolded!

Marking 4: None
Marking 5: (Lavender Rose-color) Carviperre
Mutations?: Mojave
Other:
He doesn’t have hair, because he’s a snake, but if he did, you’re 100% positive that it would be a glorious mane, always fluttering in a gentle breeze and gleaming in the light of the setting sun…even indoors. At night.

Marking 1: (Bright Turquoise-color) Genetic Stripe
Marking 2: (Malachite-color) Enchi

Other:
“Who are you?” You ask breathlessly, leaning across the bar with a hand pressed to your (ample) bosom.
He looks at you over his sunglasses (which he wears inside…at night *mic drop*) and says, “Noodle… Danger Noodle.” Then he takes a sip of his drink (shaken, not stirred) and defends you from Evil, never so much as wrinkling his suit.

ID #: 54
Name: Elvis
Base Color: Kournikova
Marking 1: (Sunshade-color) Clown
Marking 2: None
Marking 3: (Indochine-color) – Marking HIDDEN by Cinnamon mutation

Mutations?: Cinnamon
Other:
What a HUNKA-HUNKA BURNIN’ LOVE! Oh man he has all the dance moves, and that voice! How could a ladysnek resist? (Spoiler: They can’t, that’s why they swoon every time this smooth-crooning sensation slithers onstage)

Marking 1: None
Marking 2: None
Marking 3: (Cerise-color) Vertical Stripe
Marking 4: (Turquoise-color) Alien Heads
Marking 5: (Navy-color) Carviperre
Mutations?: Fire
Other:
Hubba hubba!! Look at all those MUSCLES…he’s not too bright, but let’s be real, he doesn’t have to be in order to be heckin’ good lookin’, does he? It doesn’t hurt that he’s super sweet and can always be counted on to save a damsel from a Hydra, too!

9xikjjF.png
ID #: 56
Name: Johnny Bravo
Base Color: Aquamarine
Marking 1: (Jonquil-color) Tail - Heterozygous
Marking 2: (Shakespeare-color) Alien Heads
Marking 3: (Caribbean Green-color) Diamondside
Marking 4: (Purple-color) Gavroon
Marking 5: None
Mutations?: Gravel
Other:
HOO! HAH! Hey pretty lady, what’s it like looking at the man of your dreams? He got you a birthday present: Himself. Did he tell you that you’re like an itchy rash? You’re hot and make him very uncomfortable. He may be prettier than you, and he knows it, but that’s not so bad, right?

What’s all this ‘Dangernoodle’ business? Can I get more info?

Absolutely! Check out the main Dangernoodle Adopts thread Right over here!!
There you’ll find more info on what they are, their genetics (yes—they are breedable!!!), what mutations and markings have been discovered, along with a full Genetics guide with pictures, and a list of all existing Dangernoodles and their owners!

Ok but how does that one-clutch-multiple dads thing work?

Well, remember, the mama snake is carrying more than 1 unfertilized egg—and ANY sperm, ah, present, can fertilize it. If there’s sperm from multiple males present, then each egg could theoretically be fertilized by a different male. This is well-documented in Ball Pythons—a forum I was on several years ago actually had a professional Ball Python breeder who ran a contest nearly identical to this one each year! That’s where I got the idea for it!

How are you keeping this fair?
Well here’s how I’m running this:
---All eggs will be rolled for using a random number generator. I’m assigning each a # between 1 and 5, and the RNG will determine which male is the father for each egg. Each egg is rolled for separately.

---All egg GENETICS are going to be rolled for the same way I roll for all bred babies: it follows
Mendelian genetics. I use RNG to roll for it. (Yes, this goes for color, mutations, and markings.)

---Hatching order will be determined by RNG at the time of hatching. As I type this, I don’t know which egg will hatch first, OR which egg is sired by which daddy—I’m deliberately making sure I cannot influence the contest in any way.

---Finally, what do I have to gain by rigging this? Lol. This is a free give-away, I get nothing for it except the pleasure of running it and giving away free pretties.


Can you give us more information about the genetics and stuff so we can guess?

Yes!!! Head right on over to This Link Here which has a big list of all discovered markings and mutations, and which has what has been discovered about the genetics of each up to now. Unfortunately, Dangernoodles are still pretty new, so we haven’t discovered a lot about the marking or mutation heritability yet!



Have a question not covered in the FAQ? Let me know!!!

Oooooo

Lady luck is beautifully simple! (tbh i kinda think she should have albino as a mutaion)

Who do you think the Daddy will be? I think daddy shall be Johnny Bravo (i miss that tv show)
Male or Female? Female
List 3 to 5 markings you think the baby will have (in any order):alien heads jonquil tail diamondside.
List which mutation, if any, you think the baby will have: the sire has gravel i don't know genetics off that one so ill hazard to guess no mutation.

P.s your link to the genetic guide isn't working.

:D Oooh, that's a thought! Thanks for the entry and letting me know! Link should be fixed. :D I recorded your entry--remember, you can enter twice, too!

I, too miss Johnny Bravo. It was one of my favorite cartoons.

Shadow, you don't need to list the colors by the way--just the markings! Since the Indochine marking is hidden, it isn't displayed--you can make a guess for some marking based on the markings guide if you want', but no guarantee of what's under the Cinnamon that's hiding the marking.

Otherwise, Flames and Tail, right?

Thanks!!

No worries Shadowsspy! I realize some of the names of colors are confusing so went through and put in emphasis--only the bold parts are the markings. :)

I'll get your guess recorded!

Hiamovi, thanks, I'll get it recorded!

Remember all, you can make 2 guesses :)
