Looking for suggestions on breeding Bob.

Banana, jigsaw, granite

Wanting to increase the contrast while keeping the gene expression the same. Any suggestions on pairings?

I have a super fire girl but I don't think she will give the contrast I am looking for. GHI? DG?

Let's see your thoughts. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...dce4cc4abb.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...e5148cb815.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...cbdf1cbdb0.jpg

Desert ghost will give you the most contrast enhancement but you’ll probably lose some of the pixelated pattern because it tends to clean things up. It would also be quite the project trying to make that combo with a recessive but also quite rewarding.

Would take considerable luck and a couple of generations to get the recessive to be visual.

Successful Generation 1 pairing would be Banana, Jigsaw, granite male/ DG Female

1/16	6%	32%	1/3c	Banana Granite Mojave Pinstripe 100% Het Desert Ghost	5	Jigsaw Banana Granite 100% Het Desert Ghost
1/16	6%	32%	1/3c	Banana Granite Pinstripe 100% Het Desert Ghost	4	Banana Granite Pinstripe 100% Het Desert Ghost
1/16	6%	32%	1/3c	Banana Mojave Pinstripe 100% Het Desert Ghost	4	Jigsaw Banana 100% Het Desert Ghost
1/16	6%	32%	1/3c	Banana Granite Mojave 100% Het Desert Ghost	4	Banana Granite Mojave 100% Het Desert Ghost

Successful Generation 2 pairing Banana Mojave Pinstripe Granite 100% het Desert Ghost (with the banana being a male most likely would be male) / Desert Ghost

1/32	3%	17%	1/6c	Banana Granite Mojave Pinstripe Desert Ghost	6	Jigsaw Banana Granite Desert Ghost
1/32	3%	17%	1/6c	Banana Granite Mojave Pinstripe 100% Het Desert Ghost	5	Jigsaw Banana Granite 100% Het Desert Ghost
1/32	3%	17%	1/6c	Granite Mojave Pinstripe Desert Ghost	5	Jigsaw Granite Desert Ghost
1/32	3%	17%	1/6c	Banana Granite Pinstripe Desert Ghost	5	Banana Granite Pinstripe Desert Ghost
1/32	3%	17%	1/6c	Banana Mojave Pinstripe Desert Ghost	5	Jigsaw Banana Desert Ghost
1/32	3%	17%	1/6c	Banana Granite Mojave Desert Ghost	5	Banana Granite Mojave Desert Ghost
1/32	3%	17%	1/6c	Banana Granite Pinstripe 100% Het Desert Ghost	4	Banana Granite Pinstripe 100% Het Desert Ghost
1/32	3%	17%	1/6c	Banana Mojave Pinstripe 100% Het Desert Ghost	4	Jigsaw Banana 100% Het Desert Ghost
1/32	3%	17%	1/6c	Mojave Pinstripe Desert Ghost	4	Jigsaw Desert Ghost
1/32	3%	17%	1/6c	Granite Mojave Desert Ghost	4	Granite Mojave Desert Ghost
1/32	3%	17%	1/6c	Banana Granite Desert Ghost	4	Banana Granite Desert Ghost

Would not be likely to produce but would be so awesome. I am also wondering if Bob is a one of a kind? Has anyone ever seen one with his genes?

Yellow belly amps up contrast, as does spotnose, but they will both effect the pattern.

I do love his broken pattern a lot. Is something to consider.

Anyone else have suggestions?

Leopard might make the pattern show a bit more, it would probably change it, but I think it would still look pretty cool.

There is a rare and obscure gene called static that would be perfect, but the price tag might be somewhat obscene. Lol.

Is static recessive?

Would like more info on Static and Surge morphs. The price for static is very high.

Static and surge are both dominant, but surge is definitely the more affordable of the two. Both are pattern breaking morphs, and surge is also an intensifying gene, though much less of a pattern breaker than static.
