    I do think it's interesting that it didn't seem to change anything and no one apparently bothers to produce and market homozygous pins.
    There's just no money in it.
    Why produce nothing but $80 males and $150 female?
    That's the price of those now, if a super is proven and they are out there mass producing more spiders and pinstripes, $20 male and $50 female.
    I believe facts and proof and evidence, show me the clutches while the pinstripes are all in their eggs still.
    Multiple clutches from the same sire, all pinstripes.
    I know if I did that feat I would show that off, much to my displeasure.
    Has Brian ever offered proof like that?
    I'd like to see, call me a skeptic until I do see such a feat...

    Wow that confused me for a sec ... I thought you were saying that the homozygous Daddy Gene looked like a super stripe. (I'm thinking, "Wow, I want to see a picture of THAT!!")

    I think that OWAL was getting at is that the homozygous Daddy gene looks exactly the same as the heterozygous Daddy gene -- eg, it looks Normal.

    I have read somewhere that RDR bred Platinum x Platinum and got Platinums, BELs and Normals, and the normals can only be homozygous Platty gene animals. (I'd love to see the original source of that if anyone has a link, though, I since I couldn't find it ... ) I don't know if breeding trials confirmed the homozygous Platty ...

    http://www.ralphdavisreptiles.com/bi...thons_8_07.asp clutch 76, I heard a rumor he made some more this year.

    and in a the one het daddy x normal clutch i saw, you could tell the het daddy from normals, coloring and dorsal stripe. subtle tho and no doubt i've even produced normals that look like them. but still, clutch mate sitting next to each other, you could see there was something special about a few of them.
