I believe there have been a very few super stripe X normal breedings reported without any normals or super stripes so far to disprove the theory that yellow bell and specter-whirlwind could be different mutations of the same gene.
Thank you Randy. I always like to here your imput when it comes to genetics. Really enjoyed listening to you on ReptileRadio with Larry and BT. As for your thoughts on the Super Stripe I had not thought of it like that but I do like that theory and it does sound like a very good possibility of the YB, Whirlwind, Spector gene.
Now Could someone post some pics of the Whirlwind or Spector and/or give a good discription of the defining characteristic of the mutation.
