    Anyone know of some definite temperature related morphs? I've heard of em in burms, and boas, but none for bp's that I recall.

    For those of you who don't know, you can often produce a morph by using different temperatures to cause mutations.

    I have a BP book by...umm... I can't think of it... anyway it was a really thin book. One of the pictures was a striped BP produced by the author by fluctuating temperatures. Now I'm gonna have to go find that book, lol.

    I have heard the same, that fluctuating temps can cause a stripe on the back. That's the only one I've heard of, though.

    So wouldnt it be funny to have someone think theyve finally isolated a genetic stripe when actually its the incubation temps that they use made the stripe.

    I remember hearing somewhere that they produce stripes on their backs when they get stressed out in the egg. So if you have a "normal" BP and it has a stripe all the way down its back, or even half way down, it was stressed. :-\ Who knows.... It makes sense to me.
