SK Snow x VPI Axantic 100% het Albino

[SinCityBPs]

I am pretty new here, and have not properly introduced myself. I will be sure to do so soon in the appropriate section.

From what I know... SK and VPI Axanthic is incompatible. So, this pairing should yield:


Genetic Wizard 3.0 calculations by



I used only het Albino, as I believe this would be the best way to represent the non-compatible Axanthic Genes

Would these then be considered double and triple hets?
For Example:
Het. Albino Het. VPI Axanthic Het. SK Axanthic (Triple Het)
Albino Het. VPI Axanthic Het. SK Axanthic (Double Het)

If so, is this a good idea to mix SK and VPI Axanthic?
I would think so as to ensure my offspring are compatible with either line I decide to put them with in the future; however, I really could use some thoughts and input.

Thank you in advance

Hi,

You are correct in that all three genes would be present in each snake.

50% Albino, Het VPI Axanthic, Het SK Axanthic
50% Het Albino, Het VPI Axanthic, Het SK Axanthic

Would be the actual result.

To be honest I probably wouldn't say it was a good idea to mix in both lines if the animals would be for sale. Simply becausei could really complicate thigns further down the line when people suddenly wonder which line of axanthic they need to buy to be compatible with the grandkids. There would be poss hets in that cluch no matter how you slice it.

And isn't there another incompatible line?

I admit I would like to see the double homozygous axanthic animal and how it developed as it grew however.

Just my 2c.

Thanks Dr. Del. I didn't really think about the possible hets down the tree.

If I took the original offspring and bred them strictly to other known either VPI or SK, I would then, still be able to know their offspring as either 100% VPI or SK line, no?

Do you think that would be dirtying the gene pool, if you will?

I am interested in trying it out to see how the dual Ax genes plays with each other; however, I do not want to do something that would dilute the quality of my future snakes.

Thank you again for your input and advice. Would love some others' viewpoints as well.

joliff is the third line dr del

Yes if you bred them to known SK animals then the visual axanthic offspring would be SK axanthics poss het VPI axanthics and vica versa.

If you bred them to other double axanthic hets then you would probably have to keep the animals and see how they age then guess however.

As I said I'd like to see how the animal looks with both ( or all three ) visual lines too.
