    ah the wording at the front was pretty confusing. but yea im a bio major soo its a safe bet i know a fair amount dealing with genetics. most people misstate lots of genetic stuff on here so i was just trying to make it more clear, if that makes any sense lol.

    Its fine Now... what I was Stating was, Oxy pointed out that you would not get any "hets" from a bel, unless it is a "het" russo. I have owned a russo Bel, and know a good bit about them. Now of course all codom morphs are Het for the super form, but in the Bp world I was stating that we use the term het for Ressesive morphs, and not in fact color or pattern morphs. Just like we do not call the pastel, a Het Super pastel. Yes, it is, but you can tell a pastel from a normal. Oxy stated that you would only get hets if the Russo gene is involved, and that may confuse newer members, so I was simply stating that even though it is called a het russo, it is indeed what we call Codom morphs because it effects color, and you can tell the difference between normals and Het russos. If you bred a het russo to a normal, you would not get Possible hets, you would know what you have. It is a name flaw really.

    Make sense?

    yup we use a lot of slang genetic terms in the ball ypthon world, co-dom doesnt exist its really incomplete dominant >_< but yea i get what youre saying now. interesting about the russos tho. from the pics i cant really see much different from a normal as well. is it that much more noticable in person like with yellow bellys and spotnoses?

    They're yellow. Almost like a fire. At least that is what I gathered based on what I have seen. Considering many normals can be in that same range of yellow I assumed, at first, that the yellow was the same kind of yellow on normals. However between the posts pointing out that it is visual, and the pictures, the only assumption I am left with is that the yellow is the trait that they show (like a fire).

    It's very noticeable in these pictures:

    Also I'm glad you guys sorted that out, haha, I was just reading the posts and thought I'd have to come in here and explain it. I too am a "bio major" (biochem/neuroscience hoping to do research and go on to an MD/PhD program for neuroscience) and while I just got out of my first year of college I did end up having a little genetics, and talked a lot more with my teacher about the topic, thanks to BPs.
