    I cant find any problems with it. Its accurate and loads quickly. Ausome tool. Thank you for making it.

    Re: New Genetics Calc
    Others have already mentioned things to like about the new OWAL genetics calculator. I like them, too. Nobody mentioned the unproven dominant category, which was a feature that I liked.

    IMO, the calculator is not perfect. I thought the genotypes and phenotypes should be better differentiated. Here are some other things I did not like:

    1. The unproven dominant mutants are present only as mutant/normal gene pairs. There was no way to choose a gene pair made up of two copies of those genes.

    2. Compatible mutants (alleles) were scattered instead of grouped. Lesser platinum (produced by a lesser gene paired with a normal gene) is in the single gene section while blue-eyed leucistic (produced by a lesser gene paired with a mojave gene) is in the double gene section. IMO, the scattering is inconvenient. It can also be confusing because most of the entries in the double gene section are produced by the action of two gene pairs.

    3. According to the calculator,
    Male: Blue Eye'd Leucistic (L/Mo)
    Female: Butter Daddy
    Percent Fraction Traits
    25% 1/4 Daddy Gene, Mojave
    25% 1/4 Blue Eye'd Leucistic (B/Mo)
    25% 1/4 Platinum
    25% 1/4 Blue Eye'd Leucistic
    Several genotypes produce a blue-eyed leucistic phenotype. It would help a newbie if the two genes producing the second blue-eyed leucistic progeny were identified.

    By the way, I do not follow the logic for classifying the daddy gene as a dominant mutant.

    You can still use the original calc to do this. I thought listing homozygous forms of dominant morphs might be confusing for the newcomers, since they don't exist publicly yet. I figured it was best to leave them out. The classic calc does not restrict you at all. You can even do names not in the database.

    Single gene lists all the morphs with their heterozygous and homozygous forms (besides dominant). Double gene lists all combos with 2 different genes making them up. triple gene lists combos with 3 different genes making them up and quad+ does everything else. The mojave lesser BEL is in the double gene section because it has two different morphs involved with it. I'm not quite sure how else you would want to see them organized. Lemme know what you had in mind.

    The only BEL that is not identified is the Lesser and Butter BELs. The rest are. I think most people are aware that super lesser or super butters are BEL and I see no reason to differentiate between butters and lessers. So thats what I came up with.

    Link I posted in at the top, clutch 76 on RDR's website, he bred a pair of platinums together. which you have 3 possibilities, referring to the calc...


    The baby was not a BEL or a platinum, just a baby that looked like a heterozygous daddy gene.

    yea the only mobile browser I found the list "works" on is opera because opera ignores the height and just lists the entire list, making the page freaking huge.

    Classic calc still works as long as your browser supports javascript and click to copy will work as long as it supports flash.

    It works great in safari on the iPhone, it's just not as easy to click individual genes as it would be with a mouse, probably because my fingers are too big hahaha!

    Can't wait till you get all the pictures together for it! =D
