hi guys, leopard question

[darkranger69]

i just buy a 2012 leopard spotnose male and this guy is already 700 gr and ready for my ladies.


my question is about the genetic of het for inc dom pied , is it linked to leopard on a close locus or is the super leopard a superpied??

i m not here to debate on recissive or inc dom stuff, i know here it s a big deal. for me it s not. but i still don t have a strong opinion on the leopard gene.
can some advanced hobbist or professional explain it to me?

Sorry for my poor english, im not a native speaker

Leopards are a visual het pied. That's the simplest way to think about it. Any Leo is het pied.

[C&H Exotic Morphs]

So far every single Leopard that has been tested has been proven to be het Pied and the homozygous Leopard is a Pied.

Some people will say that Leopard and Pied are "linked" (like NERD's Hidden Gene Woma and Granite) and others believe that Leopard is a Very visual het Pied.

thank you for your knowledge... So the value of a pied made of 2 leo should be more money than a common pied or a 50/50 one right since the visual effect is much more spectacular with the leopard

I would say yes

I think it's a different allele on the same locus, not linked or anything, lesser to Mojave is like het pied to leopard.
