jaguar genetics...

[tumy]

hi, just want to ask if the jaguar morph is a co-dominant gene? if it is a co-dom is there a super form? what will be the result if you breed jaguar coastal x jaguar coastal? what is a jaguar sibling? is there any special about this? or they just put siblings to identify that it is from a jaguar clutch? thanks in advance

According to that it's a Leucistic.

Simply yep it's a co-dominant gene. Siblings are just that - non Jaguar carpets and a cross of the parents sub-species. (unless they are pure Coastal Jags.)

The super form is leucistic BUT it seems to be a fatal gene with no leucistics surviving beyond a few days, if they hatch at all.
