ok I'm a bit confused. Yellow Belly..Spector..Superstripe WHAT!

[Turbo Serpent]

If the phenotyes I'm playing around with are right the outcome that I get verifies everything you've said. However, the normals that are produced would be het for, I know this sounds wierd but, yellow belly or het for spector. In the sence that they would have a hidden gene that when crossed with a normal could produce yellow belly or spector respectively. just a shot in the dark but, but like you've all have said we are just scratching the surface here.

Seeing as YB and Specter are both co-dom they cannot be het in the recessive sense where they appear normal but carry a gene for that morph.

The only other theory is that there is actually a 3rd hidden gene or additional gene in play here, or that they are simply part of the same complex. Similiar to the BEL complex in that some produce BELs and others produce variances of the BEL (ie Mystic/Phantom/Special)
