    Help with a science fair project

    I took my 10 year old daughter to a reptile show last week (our first) and she literally flipped for all of the different morphs
    We live in Alaska so its pretty rare to see morphs other than the occasional one at Petco or her Hypo BP

    So her interest in morphs sparked conversation about traits and alleles and pundit squares. She has a thirst for knowledge and caught on fast. It was fun to watch her asking the different breeders what went into different morphs and her coming up with her "super" pairings

    Anyways, she has decided that she would like to do a science fair presentation on BP genetics and measuring predict pundit populations against actual births

    Would anyone be willing to share their breeding history with me/her.

    What I am envisioning is a simple pairing, a more advanced pairing and finally a holy grail pairing
    If at least one of those pairings would have more than one cycle of history that would be fantastic.

    Ill be sure that she gives full credit to you/your business, writes you a thank you note and includes pictures of her project.
    She has a great thirst right now for learning and I want to continue to feed that.

    Thanks in advance
    Chris

    A lot of breeders list their pairings and the results on their websites.

    This website has records that go back to 2008 and has a mix of morphs involved.

    Ralph Davis' site:

    Genetics guide:
    http://www.redtailboas.com/f115/no-f...s-guide-53782/
    This is a boa constrictor site, but the principles are the same for boa genetics, ball python genetics, etc.

    Good luck

    It's neat that she's getting into the genetics at that age Just an FYI, it's Punnett square, not pundit, just so you write it correctly in her project.
