    Co-Dom or Recessive? (Hypothetical Question)

    If you had a morph (Lets say a Z Morph) and you had a choice between a Z Pastel or a Z Het Hypo, which would you choose and why?

    The Z morph is a great thing on its own, but....

    Would you be more interested in the Co-dom aspect or the Recessive aspect of the project?

    Which combos interest you more in general?

    I guess it depends on what the two combos looked like.. If the Z Pastel looked like a Parrot with scales and the Z Hypo Looked like a faded Z then I'd go pastel and visa versa

    Let us assume that both are super hot morphs in their own right

    The problem is that it would be a HET Z... so yes, normal offspring

    Re: Co-Dom or Recessive? (Hypothetical Question)

    I'm a pastel combo kinda person if it were to come to looks alone. If you're taking into account pricing factors for a long term investment then I would do the recessive. In my utopian snake world I would have both

    Oh true I was thinking it would be homo for the recessive trait.. that's a toss up.

    Re: Co-Dom or Recessive? (Hypothetical Question)

    If our list of assumptions defines the Z-morph animal as both male and co-dom, I would say the recessive. As far as morphs go, recessives hold their value better, and given the recessive parent is female, you can give yourself a great chance of proving out a super-recessive + z-morph combo within a generation through line breeding.

    If the Z-morph were recessive, and the animal female, I'd do the exact opposite for the same reason.

    Re: Co-Dom or Recessive? (Hypothetical Question)

    To me it would come down to what the final or goal combination(s) look like like how does the superpastel affect it?
