It is not quite certain yet what is going on with the jellies. What we do know is the jelly is created from breeding a PB to a T negative. They share an alalle on a single locus. So the way i look at it is the PB , T neg and Jelly are all one and the same snake. Meaning if you breed a het T neg to a Jelly or PB...they are all compatiple. That part is important for people to wrap their minds around if you are breeding multi hets with either the jelly, PB or T neg gene. For instance, if you breed a PB het for axanthic and hypo to a T negative het for axanthic and hypo. The PB and T neg traits still line up and you get new morphs because the axanthic and hypo ((ghost) wiill line up along with the T neg, PB and Jelly. So the possibilities of working with the Jelly-PB_T neg are endless and will bring a few surprises we have not seen yet.
The first breeding I did from a Jelly to Jelly all the babies came out Jellies. Then the follwoing year I did the same and I got PB , T negs and jellies.
Then there is the pewter which came from a het PB x WS x axanthic to jelly. The Jelly i ued was not het for ANYTHING. NOT axanthic or whitesided. Yet I still got whitesideds, axanthics, PB,Jellies, pewters, Ax WS, PB ws, Jelly ws (?), Pewter, etc.
Whatever this trait does it is great for creating new morphs. But some of the ets breeding just don't fall into a ctaogory i have heard of. ----- www.Bluerosy.com
