I love genetics and in fact it was one of the subjects which most drew me to my Zoology degree, but I have to agree that terms get "stuck" to morphs that don’t technically have anything to do with the morph they are stuck too. I think that the main problem is that there are a lot of people who don’t know much about the workings of a punett square or the basic concepts of genetics. Unfortunately I feel that in the business of making and breeding snake morphs we are going to have to carter to the majority of people out there who aren’t as well versed as some of the breeders who have invested the time and energy to learn all the little peaks and valleys of genetics. So to you Sojour I tip my proverbial hat and hope that one day all the little kinks in bugs can be cleared up for the majority of snake breeders but until that day it is nice to see someone else out there respects genetics as much as Steve and I do.



I do also believe that there is something going on in certain Anery lines that make the “hets” show more pink then average but it might also be held in one or both of the parents.



Just my 0.02 cents on the matter…



Sincerely,

Rose Hipskind
