    Co-dominant lines of Axanthic?

    Does anybody out there know if a morph exists that is a Co-dom or Dominant Axanthic?
    I'm not really counting the 'het red axanthic' as thats not entirely what I mean, the real axanthic part of HRA's still acts recessive.
    I mean the babies hatch out looking axanthic-like and stay that way but only recieved that gene from one parent. I've gone thru the worldofballpythons site and havent found much of anything, so far seems all axanthic lines are recessive?

    To the best of my knowledge all lines of axanthics are recessive. Co Dom or doms are yet not found or bred to find out

    Red Axanthic's are co-dom who's super shares many Axanthic qualitys..

    Could you elaborate on this comment?
    The snake isn't recessive at all, it's heterozygous(het) for the homozygous(super) Red Axanthic.
    Maybe I'm not understanding what you're trying to say

    Maybe they are saying that although the red axanthic mutation is co-dominant because the hets don't look normal the hets don't look axanthic enough for them. Sort of like it was two mutations in one, a recessive axanthic and a dominant pattern.

    I've never seen a het red axanthic in person so can't really comment on how axanthic looking the heterozygous version is.

    Yea Randy pretty much explained it how I meant, Het Red's are not axanthic-looking until 2 genes are involved and the super is made otherwise the main visual codo-dominat trait that seperates them from normals is the blackbacks they have.

    I was just curious about there being a real codom axanthic out there cause I think I may have something going along those lines with my own dinker project. I have some babies from a clutch from eariler this year that proved to be genetic to the sire.

    The hardest to photo feature about the sire was the fact that he seems to lack yellow and the only real proof of that was that his flames are a crisp silver and white. After the babies shed out, of the morph babies most of them had his pattern and such but only one of them seemed to match his true color, being that this baby seems to lack yellow as well and also has those crisp white and silver flames.

    These babies are only in the 200g range and are less than a year old ,not to mention the baby in question was the runt of the clutch, I am aware they will age and the color may change but looks promising so far. I'm reminded of the TSK axanthic line whom as adults they almost look like normals ,but as babies and Juvies they look axanthic. I'm really hoping she'll keep her looks or get better even.

    IMO I see a great line of het red axanthics! Good luck on the project and keep us updated.
