Patternless het rainwater albino X rainwater albino

[cocogecko]

what would come out of this?

 

[robin]

shoot i read your post wrong LOL

crap its been so long since i have done this

normals het rainwater albino poss. het patternless

rainwater albino het patternless


i think thats it

it's been a really long time since i have messed with genetics

anyone else out there/.

 

[mainelygeckos]

Sounds right to me robin

The two possible outcomes are:
1.) Normals 100% het Patternless and 100% het Las Vegas (or Rainwater) Albino
2.) Las Vegas (or Rainwater) Albino 100% het Patternless

Sounds right to me robin

Not at all, since one of the geckos is homozygous Patternless. All the hatchlings from this pairing would be 100% het Patternless. Nothing "pos het" about it.

 

[robin]

yeah there we go

 

[cocogecko]

Thats ok Robin, thanks everyone!

2.) Las Vegas (or Rainwater) Albino 100% het Patternless

If i breed the Normals 100% het Patternless and 100% het Las Vegas (or Rainwater) Albino together, will I get rainwater patternlesses?

And how would i know which normals are het for RW albino and patternless?

you can't tell from the outiside if something is "het" for a certain trait. It means that it carries that gene in its genetics. For example a normal "het" las vegas albino will just look like a normal. but it carries the albino gene.

to answer your other question: normal het patty/las vegas x normal het patty/las vegas will give you a chance at producing patternless rainwaters yes.

Thanks

And normal het patty/rainwater means normal het patty het rainwater too right? I really suck at this haha

And we cannot tell which normals are het for patternless or RW albinos right?

 

[Sunrise Reptile]

And normal het patty/rainwater means normal het patty het rainwater too right?

Correct. Or to simplify, you could also say Normal 100% het Las Vegas Patternless Albino. That too would be correct.

And we cannot tell which normals are het for patternless or RW albinos right?

You can't tell, no. But from the pairing we originally started out with, you know that the normal hatchlings are 100% het Patternless and 100% het Las Vegas Albino. Why you ask? Because you start with a visible Patternless and a visible Las Vegas Albino. You can see that these animals express the traits.

If you started with a het Patternless and a het Las Vegas Albino, then you'd only get possible hets for Patternless and Las Vegas Albino. You'd have to "prove out" those hatchlings, because visually there's no way to tell which hatchlings are carying the genetic traits.

ok thanks
