Super Butter Daddy

[Pythonfriend]

i think you hit a paradox there

but somehow i cannot make sense of the clutch. there should be 3 possible outcomes: super butter, butter daddy, and super "het daddy". but i see 4 shades of color there. if we assume that the paradox should be (or genetically is?) the all-white super butter BEL, there are still 3 colors left.

maybe the massive inbreeding flushed some other recessive trait to the surface?

about the "het daddy": the single-gene form is basically invisible, and the super form is just a tiny little bit lighter than a normal. like halfway between a normal and a low-quality hypo, something like that. and its in the BEL complex, and by far the weakest BEL gene, weaker than mojave or mystic or phantom or special. so to really get the gene to work, you need a strong gene from the BEL complex, like lesser/butter. then you get the platty daddys / butter daddys. thats how i believe it should work.

so this clutch needs some explaining. looks like you maybe hit a paradox super butter, a butter, a butter daddy, and the other 3 could be super het daddy or het daddy. which would mean that somehow a normal male sneaked in and its a multi-sire clutch or something like that. but im no morph ID expert, it could be something else going on. there definitively is a mystery that needs to be solved here.
