I would lean towards fruit loops, blue eyes blondies have a really vibrant blue mouth almost a baby blue per say... unless the camera didn’t capture it which can be common but they look more like fruit loops imo and the first are probably Pandora’s or a morph of

I was going to say fruit loops at first too but the outer ring is darker than the center on these which with fruit loops they are pretty much the same color/contrast as the center. I agree the lighting is a little dark and makes it a little tricky to tell. Especially on my phone with a smaller pic.

This is true but subtle inconsistencies can be attributed to lighting and morphing... usually a big inconsistency like the absence of a color completely isn’t common when things morph especially a well known and cultured strain, but that’s why I said I was leaning towards fruit loops because it’s not always 100% fancy way of saying it’s an educated guess lol

The diffrences i see between fruit loops and bebb is the center being more yellow or green. The blue is definatly more prodimant or difined in the bebbs. Imo. Maybe only under blues idk. Lol. We need a comparison shot!

@1guydude @footgal @Oscar47f @Reefer5640
thanks for the replies.
if these are Blondies..

then what are these?

these

First ones are fruit loops, second one are speckled fire and ice, third are blue eye blondes (and drop the bit***). There is another strain that has the name blondies.

Worth pointing out that IDing fruit loops and Blue eyed blonds can be a pain in the butt unless you're looking at them in real life because cameras capture the center color differently.

fruit loops is what I thought. kind of a yellowish/olive face.
the second pic I think has more than one type mixed together.
I'll try and get a straight down and post here tonight.
I get that about lighting and camera. thanks.
and thanks for the link. :cool:

Right on, funny to think that link is 2 years old already, probably time to update with better pics.

As for the second one, like all zoas that sparkle or have ‘flecks’ in them the appearance can vary quite a bit (even in the same colony) but the small blue-white mouths are a dead give away.
