I actually think this is a pretty good idea. The problem is getting people to read it. Most won't even read the care sheet. Just the same questions over and over and over......

Start here for some basic morph/genetics terminology!

Yeh any lingo really, hardware and equipment mainly but any lingo that refers to this forum

ALS = act like super

When you combine two different genes together and they produce an animal that cannot reproduce itself or produce a normal. It always produces one of the morphs that created it.

This term however is not relevant to anyone who isn't interested in breeding
