Hidden Gene in Woma morph?

[Rapture]

Do all Womas carry the "hidden gene" or just decendants from Nerd line Womas that are proven to have it?

[Inferno]

its just certain descendants of the original woma....apparently they have a slightly different look to them, i only know of 2 people other than NERD who are in possession of hidden gene womas, one i know is a member here.

Are we talking about the "pearl" ? Very interesting thread!

[Inferno]

no a pearl is a homozygous woma....the woma hidden gene is the difference between the woma x lesser plattinum and the woma x lesser² : "Soul Sucker"

[shadi11]

a soul sucker is a woma lesser to a woma lesser. or thats atleast how i understood it

[Rapture]

So what would happen if someone bred one of these super cheap Womas that are on the market without the hidden gene and bred it to a Lesser?

You get a Woma x Lesser cross, but ti doesn't loko like a Soul Sucker. I think it was Jeremy Stone that did it last year. That is what proved to me that not all Woma are created equal (in the words of Larry and BT).

Wow this is super interesting! I forgot all about the soul sucker!

Can you tell me what the "markers" are for the woma with the hidden gene compared to a regular woma?
