    Question Leopard Ball (50% het pied, or 100% het pied?)

    I picked up a leopard ball a few months ago; haven't found much info on them; some say they are 50% het pied, and others, 100% het pied.

    If anyone owns one, or knows the answer, I would like to hear your thoughts.



    Thanks,

    Re: Leopard Ball (50% het pied, or 100% het pied?)

    my book says Leopard is a dominate pattern mutation that first appeared in Het Pies in the wild. Nothing is really known about them so all Leopards are considered Het Pies

    the double genes possible each are Leopard / Pastel or Pie or Spider
    and the triple possible gene is a combo of all 3
    2.3.0 Normal
    1.0.0 Pied
    1.0.0 Pastel
    0.1.0 Spider
    2.0.0 Bearded Dragon

    Interesting. I will have to ponder that. Thanks.

    Re: Leopard Ball (50% het pied, or 100% het pied?)

    From what I hear the Leopard gene only shows up on Het. Pieds or Pieds. I think time will tell for sure. If it is true could you imagine the possibilities of being able to id het pieds!!! WOW!!! So Steve... Lets shoot for Leopard Lessers, Leopard Pastels, Leopard Bees, and Leopard het. Albinos!!! How Does that sound to play with?
