More Morph Questions

[paulh]

so i was curious about some things and have more info that may help in the answering of this - this is about Burms not BP’s but i feel like it would be the same so:

1) caramel is a recessive T+ albino trait - i have a visual 100% het female if i bred her with the following what would i be likely to get:

-A: normal wild type male that’s 100% het caramel
-B: visual labyrinth type male that’s 100% het albino (labyrinth is recessive)
-C: dwarf visual hypo male (hypo is incomplete dominant) who is also 50% het granite (recessive)

albino is a recessive trait - so i ask the same thing with my dwarf visually albino female who’s also 50% het granite (recessive) - what would she produce if paired with the above males?

2) would visual morphs from these pairings be possible given just the parents pairings above or would that be something i would have to breed for multiple generations, etc to be seen?

1) Mating list

Caramel is a recessive mutant gene. Your snake is a visual 100% het caramel. This does not compute. A visual caramel has two caramel genes in the gene pair. A 100% het caramel looks like a wild type (wt) snake but has a gene pair made up of a wt gene and a caramel gene. In the first three of the following matings, I am assuming you have a het caramel. If this is wrong, then the results are wrong.

By the way, in the following matings, het <name of gene> = 100% het <name of gene>.

1A. het caramel x het caramel -->
3/4 wild type (66% probability het caramel)
1/4 caramel

1B. het caramel x labyrinth het albino -->
1/1 wildtype (het labyrinth, 50% probability het caramel, 50% probability het albino)

1C. het caramel x dwarf visual hypo (one hypo gene, one wt gene), 50% het granite -->
1/2 hypo (50% probability het caramel, low probability het granite)
1/2 wild type (50% probability het caramel, low probability het granite)
I do not know how the dwarfing works. There might be some dwarfing in some babies, but don't count on it.

1D. dwarf albino 50% het granite x het caramel -->
1/1 wild type (het albino, 50% probability het caramel, low probability het granite)
For dwarf, see 1 C.

1E. dwarf albino 50% het granite x labyrinth het albino -->
1/2 wildtype (het labyrinth, het albino, low probability het granite)
1/2 albino (het labyrinth, low probability het granite)
For dwarf, see 1 C.

1F. There are four possible matings here. Neither parent is het granite (1F1), the female is het granite and the male is not (1F2), the male is granite and the female is not (1F3) or both are het granite (1F4). I recommend that unless you get hypo granite or granite babies, assume neither parent is het granite.

1F1. dwarf albino x dwarf visual hypo (one hypo gene, one wt gene) -->
1/2 hypo (het albino)
1/2 wild type (het albino)
There is a higher probability of dwarfing in this mating than in matings 1A - 1E.

1F2. dwarf albino het granite x dwarf visual hypo (one hypo gene, one wt gene) -->
1/2 hypo (het albino, 50% probability het granite)
1/2 wild type (het albino, 50% probability het granite)
There is a higher probability of dwarfing in this mating than in matings 1A - 1E.

1F3. dwarf albino x dwarf visual hypo (one hypo gene, one wt gene), het granite -->
1/2 hypo (het albino, 50% probability het granite)
1/2 wild type (het albino, 50% probability het granite)
There is a higher probability of dwarfing in this mating than in matings 1A - 1E.

1F4. dwarf albino het granite x dwarf visual hypo (one hypo gene, one wt gene), het granite -->
3/8 hypo (het albino, 66% probability het granite)
1/8 hypo granite (het albino)
3/8 wild type (het albino, 66% probability het granite)
1/8 granite (het albino)
There is a higher probability of dwarfing in this mating than in matings 1A - 1E.
