agreed. But i guess what i was saying is although im sure there is still much improvement that can be made to the trans gene as far as outcrossing goes. Maybe its just the gene that causes there to be issues when crossed together? Kind of similar to The enigma gene in leopard geckos although still new not quite right offspring result from enigma x enigma. I have not personally crossed two trans together but i think that with the trans bloodlines out there now someone needs to do an analysis and compare trans x trans breedings as well as two hets, and trans to a lizard not carrying any alleles for the trans gene. And document what results in the offspring. Parents size, weight, # of eggs laid, Hatch rates, growth rates, defects. To try and point out if its the actual gene being crossed with it self that creates problems. The trans gene amazes me so much. Not only when it comes to crossing it but to the weird enigmas out there like hets with solid black eyes and the partial trans dragons. This gene is truly n enigma Hopefully one day we will know more about this trait.
