    Info wanted on known inheritable physical traits

    I have had BPs for many years, but recently have gotten the breeding bug. I would like to have a few, breed a few, but do not want to perpetuate physical abnormalities that are seen in some morphs on a regular basis. For the record, i am not wanting to bash a breeder or a morph, it is just a personal thing for me and you might as well have what you like if you are going to have them. I know that Spiders often have the wobbling gene, and that Caramels have a kinking gene. What are some other well known morphs that have commonly known traits such as these? Is there a place online that discusses these issues? Thanks,
    *Fila*

    There are quite a few threads on this site on this subject. I suggest that you do a site search for that.

    Super lessers/butters may get bug eyes.
    Super cinny/black pastels may get duck billed snouts.
    Some womas also get wobbles.

    Wow, some of the motor skill problems reminds me of the fainting goats Great video and thank you very much for these, Aaron. I am vision impaired and doing alot of reading is impossible for me most days, and I always pay for it the next with splitting corneas. This community is very generous with their time.

    Just out of curiosity, I'm familiar with the other genes but what are the issues associated with these morphs?

    Super spotnose can exhibit a wobble. I don't have either sable or champagne but I understand that these genes can give problems in combination, such as spider*sable being fatal in combination.

    More display or neuro symptoms along the lines of spider/woma.
