"If you don't think that the Harlequin is morph. You might rethink things just a bit."
I was under the impression that Jungles where a Co-Dominant Morph, while the Harliquins where a Poligentic trait right?
Taken from HarliquinBoa.com website:
The anomolous aspects in both pigment and pattern produced from this project are tied directly to a single bloodline and appears to be more dependant upon the direct relationship to that lineage, rather than to the visual appearence of the parental contributor. For this reason, I have taken the rather unpresidented step of naming the bloodline itself, rather than any one particular appearence produced from it, so I think it's important to clairify here that "Harlequin" is not the name of a monotypical "morph", but instead referes to a specific bloodline with non-recessive, variably expressed characteristics, which has now proven itself over multiple generations to be much more than a simple "homogenization effect" created by random "selective breeding".
So is the Harliquin something that can be bred out of a line? Meaning if instead of breeding for more extreme Harliquins could the opposite be done? Keep breeding for more normal looking boas? Can that be done with Jungles? Can a Jungle be bred generation after generation to look more normal?
So you are saying Harliquins are a type of Genetic Morph of Abarent Boas? ----- Executive Reptiles Amanda Kingsbury & David Kendrick www.executivereptiles.com
