Interesting Twist on Toffee Project
'
Thoughts, comments? Makes more sense now when someone posted a picture of a baby toffee and we all swore it was an albino until it started to color up with age.
I wonder is really going on with this mutation?

Re: Interesting Twist on Toffee Project
Where? I looked here in BP Morphs & Genetics where it made sense to me any news on that would be before I posted. I don't see anything in this forum.

Yeah there are quite a few threads about it. At least 1 other one here and some on KS, along with Bush League.

VERY COOL!!! Looks like regular albino and toffee are allelic to each other! I'll be curious to see if one is dominant to the other or if you get an intermediate phenotype. I hope that toffee is dominant to albino - this way it'll be easier to start making toffees as albino is already very common out there.
Should also increase the value of albinos as well if they can be used to produce toffees.

I'm guessing they will be co-dominant (CORRECT usage of the term btw) to each other and produce an intermediate coloration, but if it turns out that one is dominant over the other then I'd have to guess that albino, as the more extreme reduction in melanin, would be dominant over toffee.

saw this yesterday. very interesting. im really looking foward to seeing what develops with this and how the snake in the video develops.

Re: Interesting Twist on Toffee Project
My theory is if they are alleic, then we will see 3 phenotypes. Albinos,Toffee,and Toffinos .
I think it will be interesting to see how/if you can tell the difference between Toffinos and Toffees. Like the Mystic/Mojos.
It may work something similar to the Paradigmn Boas?
Im not to sure how I feel about it being kept a secret for so long?
The complexity of these Ball Python genetics is enought o make you go

Pics of the Toffino here: http://www.reptileradio.net/reptiler...t=30005&page=5 Doesn't look like an intermediate form...
