While I may just be a hobby boa guy, I feel as though something is missing.It looks like you are saying that both of the parents must be hets for prodigy, and that prodigy is for sure recessive.
Have there been other prodigy litters? Has homozygous prodigy been bred to prodigy to see what happens there? It looks like this project has been a long time in the making, but I have never seen anything like them posted.
Even if you got albinos from 2 wildcaught albinos, you couldn't say that both of the parents are for sure hets without doing more trials right? Flukes happen, and anomolies can turn out to be simple recessives, when proven.
I am not trying to poop in the punch, just curious as to how they can be called genetic, and then to be said to be for sure recessive.
I read the entire post above, and din't see mention of other prodigys having been produced before. I mean no dissrespect, and if they have been produced, and proven to be recessive, I apologize in advance for my ignorance.
