someone wondered the other day whether desert phase cal kings are simply a population of anerythristic or axanthic cal kings.
what about these northern water snakes, kentucky style. maybe the gray ones are anerys? I wonder if anyone's done captive breeding to see if the gray is a recessive trait.
there's no reason two or more color phases couldn't coexist. example: gouldian finches in australia, where there are red headed birds, a recessive yellow-headed variety, and a sex-linked black-headed type.
what do you think?
