Fist, how exactly are the oreo and apricot genes passed on? Is it a line bred thing? Or just a unstable natural morph?
Also, is hypo the only recessive gene in this species? I would like to breed for a hypo Oreo or hypo Halloween, really just as a "Can I do it?" type of thing than a business venture, lol.
The Oreo,Halloween,and Sockhead are all pattern mutations that are line bred. There is no simple recessive genes for them. I am currently working with a Co-dom Halloween animal that came from over seas. I should know more at the end of this breeding season.
Hypo seems to be the only recessive gene as we know right now in the hobby. There has been albino pop up but they are more than likely hybrids as far as I know. Some still think the hypo gene is from another ssp. also.
Here's a pic of a hypo oreo I produced last year, so it is possible to produce. I haven't seen any good Hypo Halloweens yet.
