I'm horrible with this genetics thing! please help.

FOUND IT!!! IF any one can add to it I would appreciate it.

According to the link you provided my Patternless X Blizzard would give me Banana Blizzards. I thought I could only get them by crossing the babies together? I already have babies from the pair! 4 to be precise! I thought they were just Het for both!

But again Im SUPER new at all this so I could be wrong.

You are.

There cant be a jungle blizzard because blizzards block the pattern and color of a gecko.

The APTOR is not a simple recessive morph, it is a combination of many variable traits.

Raptor can be treated as a recessive if you are only talking about the eye gene (which has a name: eclipse).

When talking about genetics, every loci has two alleles. so if you are talking about one gene, you have to show a pair of the letter that represents that gene.
An albino would be 'aa' a het albino would be 'Aa' then a blazing blizzard would be 'aabb' A blazing blizzard het "raptor" would be 'aabbRr'

With regards spefic looks like CT's reverse stripes, etc.. I THINK thats not genetic but... you know what I mean right? Or am I wrong? I really want some kinda sticky to break all this down for new potential breeders like myself .

They are genetic, they just are not simple recessive traits. They are polygenetic; poly = many; genetic = controlled by genes; "controlled by many genes" Jungles would be included in this group.

Since banana blizzards are a double recessive, you will have to cross the babies togeather to get them.

That page says blizzard PLUS patternless = banana blizzard. which is true. If an animal is homozygous for blizzard PLUS patternless then it is a banana blizzard.

As far as I know both are true patty and blizzard! Here's oldest baby:

I still plan on breeding two offsping in the future, just waiting for males to hatch!

Well since this thread got bumped up, what would the outcomes of blizzard+jungle giant het raptor
I'm guessing normals/high yellows?

Blizzard X jungle giant het raptor =
junglyish/banded pattern, possible giant, het blizzard, 50% het eclipse

If the jungle giant is an albino, then the offspring would be het albino. If it is not, then they will be 50% het albino.
there is a 50/50 chance that the offspring will be giants.

I tried. Glad someone who knows what there ralking about steps up to to plate.

Ive been looking for just a chart break down of the morphs.... have you seen any Daniel?

 

[mynewturtle]

Thanks for clearing that all up Daniel. IPSL tried made since to me but '08 will be my first year of breeding so I'm not good with this morph thing.

Me neither I only have a male lol So Im in the same boat as you bro. We should excqange info IM me sometime.
