    morphs

    can someone post those links for me to those 2 web sites that have morphs displayed and explained? I cant seem to find them at all

    my questions if someone feels like taking them on are...

    how do you get a morph? can it happen of 2 "normal" parents?
    and what is "het" and why would that make a difference in the snake? so I'm pretty much looking for a BP biology lesson I guess

    any help would be apreciated!
    thanks

    Search function is truely an underutilized resource on this site. It's up on the tool bar, and is a wonderful tool.

    Re: morphs

    For your BP Biology lesson, I would really go to that NERD link that was supplied... Many others have wonderful genetics pages on their websites... but I found NERD's easiest to understand, and very complete.

    And as Christie already said... there have been MANY things covered about this already in this forum.. Just read through some of the "Morph" forum posts. You'll find the answers to just about all of your questions I'm sure.

    Good luck!

    Re: morphs

    NERD's is awesome - but pour yourself a root beer if you get ambitious enough to read each one in one sitting!
    For a more simplistic explaination with pictures (I LOVE pictures - my wee brain can handle that better! LOL) I found that the Markus Jayne site gave me my lightbulb moment!

    Here's the link:

    I was going to post that link last night, but it was under construction at the time. (apparently not now though) I do like that site as well.
