    Re: Identify "normal"

    It's complicated. Any morph with a super form has a het because het is heterozygous meaning that it has one copy of a normal gene and one copy of a mutated Gene
    Homozygous means it has two copies of the gene. So het. As referred to in our hobby is used incorrectly. Now note this is just layman's terms on genetics 101
    Het red axanthic is simply the name he chose to use

    Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired.

    Ok, thanks. Still very much in the learning stages of morphs and what it all means. I just got back into the hobby after years away. A LOT has changed.

    Just like law"Normal until proven genetic"! She is getting bred with maybe an albino this year, so that if she is a Co-dom/Dom the babies should be distinct and if not when bred together we will see if she is recessive and possibly make snows since I think she is sometype of axanthic.
    Have a GREAT day!!

    Put her back to a son next season and try to prove her out worst case is you make possible het Albino
    But at least you would know
