    Nomenclature

    Hey everyone! I was just sitting around thinking last night about how many different morph combos there are, and how you can find some on WOBP. However, whenever I try to see what a three or four gene animal (that I know definitely exists) looks like I don't have much luck, and I was wondering if it's maybe because I am ordering the genes wrong? Is there some naming system that determines the order you would organize a morph's genes in (e.g., Fire Clown Super Black Pastel vs Super Black pastel Fire Clown)? I'm just curious! It may be my inner biochemistry nerd coming out, lol.

    Re: Nomenclature

    the simple way is to simply search for ONE gene and then scroll through all the possibilities. It takes longer but you miss less and can occasionally find amazing combos you have previously not considered.

    not gona lie: i did exactly this through WOBP.com for like a YEAR straight when i was deciding if i wanted to become serious with breeding in the future. it is a slow but super interesting process; you learn SO much. seriously, go to WOBP and search Black Pastel; now just study the images and study the effects of other genes added, one by one.

    good luck friend!!!

    EDIT: there is no nomenclature for the order of genes in a name, jsyk.

    Re: Nomenclature

    One thing you can do also is put the morph combos in at morph market and change the filter to show all listings when you search. You may not find every one but its another resource at your disposal.
    Another... less practical one is instagram. You cant look up specific morphs but if you follow a lot of breeders, they show off their adult bps and it is a good way to see how morphs age.
