Kelli.....Here is a picture of two gourds I grew on the same vine...showing that the propagation was mixed...What I show as a birdhous gourd is on the right...and the one on the right looks like it has been mixed with a dipper gourd that wasn't trellised...as I do not trellis my birdhouses gourds.

Could your picture have been cross polinated with a Canteen Gourd? The shape looks like it and they grow about 7" X 7". I know that unless they are "true" seeds you can get a lot of different shapes from one seed.

What do you think??

P.S. I didn't grow Dipper Gourds this same year...so it had to be in the seeds.....Jo
