Blizzards

xblackheart Aug 12, 2006 12:52 PM

What makes up a blizzard? Anery, amel,.....and....?

Is it possible to get a normal, anery from a pair of blizzards. Someone tried telling me that even if you have the parents of the same phase, you could still end up with normals. He said depending on the genetics of the parents. This was mentioned when we were talking about bloodred parents. So, if I gather what he was saying, you could end up with normals if you have bloodred (or blizzard) parents with poor genetics? I am not any good with genetics. Can someone help me out.

Also had a question. If you got a normal out of a snow and amel het anery, what would that normal be het for? Both anery, amel?

last question
If a clutch of corns had some motleys, some normals, would the normals be het for motley as well, or only have a 50% chance to be het.

thanks

Blizzard is amel and anery B (charcoal)

I can not see any way to get a normal and an anery from a pair of blizzards. Blizzard to blizzard gives you blizzard now if both blizzards happened to be het Anery A you now get the possibility of snows and blizzards.
If one happens to be a blizzard and the other a snow and not actually a blizzard, you would get amels het anery A and het anery B.
If the blizzard was het anery A and the snow het anery B you could get amels, blizzards, snows or snow/blizzard (amel, anery A and Anery B) Not sure if you would be able to tell these from normal snows.
But I see no way to get normals and anerys.

Once again
I don't see any way to get normals from snow to amel het anery breeding.
you would get amels or snows.
No way for normals

Yes, the clutch was only normals and normal motleys the normals would be het motley.

In response to your last answer about motleys, wouldn't it matter what the parents were to determine the baby's genetics? If both parents were only het for motley, then the normals would just have a 66% chance of being het, right? But if one of the parents was motley, then the normals would be 100% het motley. At least I think so. Sorry if I was wrong. I'm kind of new to genetics too.

Good catch... if both were normals het motley, you are right, the normals would be possibly het motley.
