Anyone catch it?

[Mendel's Balls]

Currently at a pet co i was reading a article in a reptiles Magazine about genetic engineering in ball pythons( it showed a pied as a example), and how they might be able to make the white different colors

I'm a guy but having a Hot pink pied would be awesome. Especially if they make glow in the dark ball pythons.

What do you guys think other if changing them did not effect health or cost a lot of money( which it would)

Just wondering, What was the name of the article? And what month's issue is it found in? Jan or Feb?

I dont think anyone has made a transgenic reptile species.......most of our methods for making modifications to an organism's genome or replacing genes have been pioneered in the mouse and have been tailored to the developmental biology and reproductive physiology of mammals.....

However, there have been recent advancements in making transgenic chickens.....http://seedmagazine.com/news/2006/06...ge_lab_mic.php

There are also a lot of methods for fish.....in fact the world's first transgenic pet is a zebrafish called Glofish
