Genetics

I am wondering where I can go to see a list of morphs that will just show me this and this makes this. Not a genetic calculator just a flat this and this create this. Thanks

For new people who have limited knowledge in genetics this is actually poorly written IMO, leaving new people under the impresion that an Albino Clown is Clown X Albino???? It is a lot more complicated than that.

When you write "Clown X Albino" it implies that you are crossing a Clown to an Albino. (that pairing will yield Double Hets Albino/Clown)

Here is a morph list http://www.worldofballpythons.com/morphs/ if you click on each morph you can see what goes in it. (most complete list yet with over 2000 mutation)

Deborah is right that is a much better option I didn't even think about that site and I've got it bookmarked LoL I just know quite a bit about genetics so I never really look it up anymore. Good catch on my not thinking.

The underlying problem with these answers is because of the question you're asking, dustponds10.

In genetics, A + B = C isn't how it works. A + B = some C or D, maybe E and F, and possibly G or H, and maybe only a lot of I (if you're really lucky/unlucky), etc is what happens. That is why calculators are more effective than lists.

Yes, the WOBP Morph List is a fun resource (and a GREAT way to lose an afternoon!). However, it probably still isn't as "cookie cutter" as you seem to be looking for. If you click on Albino Black Pastel, for example, it still only shows that Albino and Black Pastel are the genes found in this animal - not how these genes combined to make it.

A basic knowledge in genetics is essential if you are looking at trying to figure out what makes what when it comes to this hobby. Try this link out for size and see where it takes you: http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...Basic-Genetics.

Once you have a hold on the basic genetics behind it all, then you can start picking out the ingredients you like and begin making and/or deconstructing all sorts of fun morphs!
