forgive me, it's been a few years since my last science class. As I was replying to that message, I had a dictionary open in my lap looking up the exact definition of "heterozygous," so I could be more conrete. As usual, the dictionary didn't help me much.

I should know better. I forgot that TECHNICALLY F1 Hypos, arabasques, motleys, ect, would actually be considered hets. I've gotten so caught up in co-dom and super talk.... haha. Because they would still have the 2 different Alleles from both parents, making them hets. Unless it would be what we consider "super," carrying only alleles of one gene. being an F2-4? hypo, or arabasque x arabasque result offspring, etc.

Sound a little better? haha. Thank you for pointing that out.
