Learning about genetics

so we all know that ball python genetics are the easiest to learn. what comes after that?

What do you mean?

Genetics of other species of herps are fairly similar. Like they all have recessive, co-dom, and dominant. But its just that some have different name for the different morphs. It may be a little bit different, im not entirely sure bc i only have balls, but for the most part i believe that theyre pretty similar... Is that what you mean?

I personally agree that the bp genetics are pretty easy.

I'm just starting to learn about leopard geckos and it is so much different.

Genetics work the same essentially for everything (I.e. a recessive to non-mutated Punnet square for a ball python will look the same as for any other creature) but the morphs we recognize in the animals can act differently.

If you already get basic genetics, then there is no real "step up", it doesn't really have a stepping stone pattern. Just find another species that you like and learn about it :)

well i already know ball python genetics. earlier i was trying to learn leopard gecko and boa genetics and it was so much different... why?

How are they different. I have looked at the Boa genetics and they are the same and a ball python. They have Dominate, co dominate, and recessive traits. The only difference that I find is that with boa's there are many different locals that have different morphs. Also boa's use names for morphs that are the same as bp's but completely different. Example of this is ghost. In boa's hypo is used to describe what we would call ghost in bp's.

Learn what heterozygous and homozygous means

Then learn how different genes that lay on the same locus work

That about covers anything you would want to know. There may be different names for things but it's all the same when it comes to heterozygous and homozygous
