The WTF Project (WTF Morphs): Looking For Thoughts

[Pythonfriend]

if we assume that its genetic, then that does not leave many options. if its genetic, it could be dominant, incomplete dominant, recessive, or it could be a polygenetic trait.

and in BP breeding, people dont work much with polygenetic traits. if several unknown genes need to come together then it takes a lot of time and a lot of inbreeding to get results, and these resulting BPs wont really be compatible with the base morph combination and recombination that BP breeders like to do.

i think you should further investigate both the eye color thing, and the weird paradox thing. these eyes really look cool, it would be nice if they can be reproduced.

about the eyes: did you get any clutches where some of the babies have these silver eyes, and the rest of them have normal eyes?

anyway, just keep breeding, and for both traits (silver eyes and strange paradox), you need to see if you can confirm or falsify any of these assumptions:

- its dominant
- its incomplete dominant
- its recessive
- its a polygenetic trait
and because you only hatched one with the big paradox, for the paradox there is one more option:
- its a random freak of nature
